Orbeon Forms: An open source forms solution

February 24, 2010 by christian · Leave a Comment 

Orbeon Forms is an open source forms solution that handles the complexity of forms typical of the enterprise or government. It is delivered to standard web browsers (including Internet Explorer, Firefox, Safari and Opera) thanks to XForms and Ajax technology, with no need for client-side software or plugins. Orbeon Forms allows you to build fully interactive forms with features that include as-you-type validation, optional and repeated sections, always up-to-date error summaries, PDF output, full internationalization, and controls like auto-completion, tabs, dialogs, trees and menus. Orbeon Forms already supports most of the XForms 1.1 specification.

Orbeon Forms is built around a user-friendly Ajax-based XForms engine, which brings W3C XForms to standard browsers, and the XPL engine, a mature, high-performance XML pipeline engine for processing XML data.

On top of the XForms engine, Orbeon Forms includes Form Runner (a runtime environment for forms) and Form Builder (a web-based form builder)
