InfoPath Dev

Ok, I've used the CAML method described by Matt Faus/Scott Heim (using a CAML xml doc) to submit an InfoPath 2007 form to a SharePoint 2007 list. I followed the steps posted by Brynnie5209 on Scott Heim's blog to modify the form (modifying the manifest.xsf file) so I can utilize InfoPath controls like dropdown box, checkboxes, etc. All works exactly as described. My only problem is I can't get the form to open in a browser, only the InfoPath client. I'm getting an "undefined namespace or unsupported function" error in the Design Checker that refers to the "Add List Item Template.xml" CAML document. Is there any fix to this that will enable me to open the form in a browser? Thanks.

Hi Jakester,

Matt worked at Qdabra when he created that example, but that was several years ago and nowadays we use qRules for this type of thing. It's easier to configure, works in browser, and is data-driven which means you can change the mapping without having to create a CAML xml.

To be quite honest, I'm not sure what limits exist for browser forms regarding the CAML approach. You might try adding a namespace to the xml (make sure you define at the top of the file). Maybe you can email Scott and ask him about it.

Best of luck!
