Designer: repeating subforms over same xsd nodelist.

[LiveCycleDesign]

I have a

Members Nodelist with PersonalInfo, EmploymentInfo, IncomeSources etc..

like

<Application>

     <Member>

          <PersonalInfo>

               <Name>New Designer 707</Name>

               ......

          </PersonalInfo>

          <EmploymentInfo>

               <Position>Developer</Position>

               <StartDate>....</StartDate>

               .......

          </EmploymentInfo>

          ...........................

          ...........................

     </Member>

     <Member>

          <PersonalInfo>

               <Name>New Designer 707</Name>

               ......

          </PersonalInfo>

          <EmploymentInfo>

               <Position>Developer</Position>

               <StartDate>....</StartDate>

               .......

          </EmploymentInfo>

          ...........................

          ...........................

       </Member>

</Application>

In designer first page I have to show the personal info of all members (I am using subform in subform to repeat for all members)

Then I have few static no-repeat data pages.

Now in the next page I need to show the employment info of all members (I am using subform in subform to repeat for all members)

Here it is not showing any data. If I remove the first member element iteration, then it will show. Seems like I cant iterate multiple times over the same nodelist.

Could anybody please help me to solve this issue?

Thanks

This is a limitation with the binding that two repeating subforms can't bind to the same data.  There is a work around explained by John Brinkman in his blog. http://blogs.adobe.com/formfeed/2010/05/duplicating_subform_structures.html

Hi Bruce,

This is exactly what I want my Form looks something like below, the French subform is an exact duplicate of the english subform. The ItemBody subform is the repeating subform it works Ok in the first page but in the second page cannot see the items.

My XML is something like below

<Invoice>

          <InvoiceHeader>

          </InvoiceHeader>

          <InvoiceDetail>

                         <ListOfInvoiceItemDetail>

                                        <InvoiceItemDetail>

                                                       <InvoiceBaseItemDetail>

                                                                      <LineItemNum>

                                                                                      <BuyerLineItemNum>1</BuyerLineItemNum>

                           <SellerLineItemNum>1</SellerLineItemNum>

                                                                      </LineItemNum>

                                                       </InvoiceBaseItemDetail>

                                        </InvoiceItemDetail>

            <InvoiceItemDetail>

                 <InvoiceBaseItemDetail>

                      <LineItemNum>

                           <BuyerLineItemNum>2</BuyerLineItemNum>

                           <SellerLineItemNum>2</SellerLineItemNum>

                      </LineItemNum>

                 </InvoiceBaseItemDetail>

             </InvoiceItemDetail>

  <InvoiceSummary>

          </InvoiceSummary>

</Invoice>

The Binding I have in the first occurence of Subform ItemBody is InvoiceDetail.ListOfInvoiceItemDetail.InvoiceItemDetail[*]which works perfectly fine.

I have used the script in calculate event for ItemBody in the French Subform by making a change to the line as below

match(this, English.dataNode.resolveNodes("$.*"));

But I cannot see any change in my output, leaving the binding for ItemBody to None is not giving me any results.

Appreciate your inputs.

Harry
