Repeating Section problem

[rick]

I have a form that I just want to make multiple instances of on a page at the
user's discretion. I put the whole form inside of another repeating section.
The user puts the data in, clicks repeat, and (this is where the problem is)
the form is repeated with all the information just put in. Apparently that's
not supposed to happen. How do I make it stop? I ONLY want the FORM to
repeat, not the information. Also, I want one section of fields in the form
to repeat within the original form (a nested repeat). But, when I click on
the repeat section button on the entire form, EVERYTHING gets repeated. i
want this form...
A B
C D

to be able to go to...
A B
C D
C D

then click on repeat, and it repeats
A B
C D

(the original)
Why doesn't it do that????

Hi Rick ,

Please follow this Schema and you will get what you are trying to do

<my:group1>
<my:group2>
<my:A/>
<my:B/>
<my:group3>
<my:group4>
<my:C/>
<my/>
</my:group4>
</my:group3>
</my:group2>
</my:group1>

Remember that group2 and group 4 are repeating nodes

Just create this as a New IP form and you will understand.
I Guess What you are trying to do is inserting the same fields in another
repeating section. In this way the Information typed in the earlier fields is
getting repeated as they are binded to the Same fields.

I hope I made it as simple as you want.

Hmm....I did some researching and learning to try to use the information you
gave me. I assumed it was xml or something, but i don't know enough to use
it. I thought I created an xml document, so i could make a new "IP form
using XML document" but it says it's not a valid xml file. Something about
invalid xml character on line 2. Anyways, would somebody be able to point me
in a direction to use the information? I understand html, and that was the
only think keeping me from being COMPLETELY overwhelmed while looking at the
xml stuff. anyways...help from somebody?

Hey Rick,

If you can send in your Email ..I can try sending this IP template to you.
In the meanwhile lets see if some one else can make it easy for you.

Good Luck

Hi Rick,

I mailed you the template to your emailID.
Hope it points you in right direction.
