InfoPath Dev

Hi,

I'm programming with InfoPath since 1 week and I have some problems to create node manually with JScript.

Here is my structure :

+ tbl_info (repeating)
...
+ tbl_attendees (repeating)
- ID
- Id_Attendee
- Attendee_name
- Attendee_status

When tbl_attendees have only 1 field i'm able to create a new node by using the following code :

+ tbl_attendees (repeating)
- Attendee_name

var xmlNodeText = XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/d:tbl_info/d:tbl_attendees/@Attendee_name");
var xmlParent = XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/d:tbl_info/d:tbl_attendees");
var newNode;

newNode = XDocument.DOM.createNode
(1, "Attendee_name", "http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/myXSD/2005-04
-01T18:40:51");
newNode.text = "Christian";
xmlParent.appendChild(newNode);

How can I do the same things with few fields in tbl_attendees ???

Thanks a lot

Hi Christian Côté, Welcome to the Board!
You are almost near to getting it done,
Instead of creating each node individually you can create a DOM of "d:tbl_attendees" and replace the original "d:tbl_attendees" with the new one.
Here is how you do it
var sXml = "<d:tbl_attendees xmlns:d='http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/ado/dataFields' >
<Attendee_name>Christian</Attendee_name>
<Attendee_Number>Number</Attendee_Number>
</d:tbl_attendees>"

Load this into a Dom
var oXml = XDocument.CreateDOM();
oXml.async = false;
oXml.loadXML(sXml);
Now replace your old "d:tbl_attendees" with the new one.
xmlParent.ParentNode.ReplaceChild(oXml.documentElement, xmlParent)

Hope this Helps!

Hi Agni,

Here is the code I modified but I still got the error :
Element 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/ado/dataFields}
tbl_attendees' is unexpected according to content model of parent
element 'http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/ado/dataFields}
tbl_attendees'.


var sRepeatingNode = "<d:tbl_attendees xmlns:d='http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/infopath/2003/ado/dataFields'><ID>1</ID><Id_attendee>1</Id_attendee><Attendee_name>Christian Côté</Attendee_name><Attendee_status>1</Attendee_status></d:tbl_attendees>";

var xmlParent = XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/dfs:myFields/dfs:dataFields/d:tbl_info/d:tbl_attendees");

var oXml = XDocument.CreateDOM();
oXml.async = false;
oXml.loadXML(sRepeatingNode);
xmlParent.appendChild(oXml.documentElement);

Do you have an idea why it's happening ???

Thanks a million

Hi Christian,
You made small mistake here, in my sample I replaced whole of "d:tbl_attendees" node with the new node. But you are appending the new "d:tbl_attendees" node to the old "d:tbl_attendees" node which is wrong according to the schema.

In my sample we have prepared a new "d:tbl_attendees" node to replace the existing node.

xmlParent.ParentNode.ReplaceChild(oXml.documentElement, xmlParent)

Hope you got it!
