[hunchentoot-devel] accessing xml data from xforms/xhtml post
I'm hoping this isn't in the "lame questions" category... Is there a straightforward way to have hunchentoot look at xml data submitted by an xforms document? (This comes from playing with firefox with the xforms extension.) Example: 1. Using the "post" method (not "form-data-post"), an xforms document submits xml at the end of the day. If the firefox "livehttpheaders" plugin isn't lying, it looks something like: POST /tadmin/qeditor-qcatsel HTTP/1.1 Host: 127.0.0.1:3000 User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8.1.1) Gecko/20061208 Firefox/2.0.0.1 Accept: text/xml,application/xml,application/xhtml+xml,text/html;q=0.9,text/plain;q=0.8,image/png,*/*;q=0.5 Accept-Language: en-us,en;q=0.5 Accept-Encoding: gzip,deflate Accept-Charset: ISO-8859-1,utf-8;q=0.7,*;q=0.7 Keep-Alive: 300 Connection: keep-alive Content-Length: 215 Content-Type: application/xml <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <Category1/> <Category2/> <Category3/> <Selectaquestion>2 1</Selectaquestion> </data> 2. However, Hunchentoot's RAW-POST-DATA returns only "2 1"...all of the xml tag information is (apparently) discarded. Is there a straightforward way to get anything a littler "rawer"? Unfortunately, I'm definitely on the lisp 'newbie' side and got lost on planet chunga as I was trying to figure things out... Thanks for your time and any tips/suggestions/recommendations, Alan Thompson __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!

How about raw-post-data (http://weitz.de/hunchentoot/#raw-post-data)? This will give you the "raw" xml which you can then parse yourself. HTH Ralf Mattes

Are you perhaps looking at the data in your browser? If so, have you tried 'view source'? (The browser will interpret the XML as messy HTML and not show tags... this has confused me in the past.) Marijn
