Re: Multipage CForm using Ajax - Non ascii Characters

Thanks Greg and Robby for your replies.

Unfortunately I can't get it to work. I assume encodeURIComponent goes into the flowscript:

    function multipage() {
        var lodgeId = cocoon.parameters.lodgeId;
    cocoon.request.setAttribute("lodgeId", lodgeId);

        var documentURI = cocoon.parameters["documentURI"];
        // parse the document to a DOM-tree
        var document = loadDocument(documentURI);

        //document = decodeURIComponent (document);

        // get the documentURI parameter from the sitemap which contains the location of the form
    definition (model)
        var definitionURI = cocoon.parameters["definitionURI"];

        //create new form
        var form = new Form(definitionURI);

        // get the documentURI parameter from the sitemap which contains the location of the binding
    file
         var bindingURI = cocoon.parameters["bindingURI"];
    form.createBinding(bindingURI);

         // bind the document data to the form
         form.load(document);

         // show the form to the user until it is validated successfully
    form.showForm("lodgemul-display-pipeline.jx");

         // bind the form's data back to the document

         form.save(document);

         // save the DOM-tree back to an XML file,
    document = encodeURIComponent(document);
         saveDocument(document, documentURI);

         // show the xml generated from the form
         var success ='/B&B/England/Devon/Bideford/'+ lodgeId+'.html';
    //cocoon.redirectTo('/office/' + lodgeno+'.htm');
         cocoon.sendPage(success);
    }

document = encodeURIComponent(document); produces the following error when I submit the completed form

     Can't find method org.apache.cocoon.xml.dom.DOMStreamer.stream(string).

What am I doing wrong
