How to use a Component?

   Hi,
I'm developing an Application form which contains Address section Multiple times. So, I'm trying to build a component(Address) which contains street, city, state, country, Pincode. I planned to use address component as a sub-document in the main document:
    <fo:block>
       <xfd:subdocument-content src="url(Address.xfc)"/>
    </fo:block>

Now, in the sub-document:

//Address.xfc:

<!-- Start of Sub- document-->

   <fo:block>
      ADDRESS

      Street Address: ________________________________________  

      City______  State _______  Country_______ ZipCode __________
   </fo:block>

For the above design i've written tables and blocks.

Now, to fill the values of City, State, Country i used   <xfd:conditional-block-sequence> like below:
<xfd:variable name="Country"/>
 <xfd:variable name="State"/>
 <xfd:variable name="City"/>

  <fo:page-sequence>
  <fo:flow>
  <fo:block>
  <xfd:conditional-block-sequence>
     <xfd:conditional-block test="$State='UP'">
      <fo:block>Uttar Pradesh</fo:block>
     </xfd:conditional-block>
     <xfd:conditional-block test="$State='MA'">
      <fo:block>Maharashtra</fo:block>
     </xfd:conditional-block> .....
  </xfd:conditional-block-sequence>
  </fo:block>

  </fo:flow>
  </fo:page-sequence>

  similarly, for State and Country
To fill City, State and Country in the Dashed location i used

   <xfd:subdocument-content src="url(../Xfc/Address.xfc)" xf:dt-height="0.146in">
      <xfd:subdocument-parameter name="City" value="root/City"/>
   </xfd:subdocument-content>

and to fill pincode

   <fo:block height="12pt">
       <xfd:field fo:padding-left="1pt" xpath="root/ZipCode"/>
   </fo:block>

<!-- End of Sub-document -->

My Doubts:

1) Did the use correct code and correct format?

2) When i try to open the main document and component, then are closing as soon as i open.
why does this happen?

3) Tell me the Syntax's for using a component in Main document.

	As shown below is my Component... <!-- Component --> <xfd:variable name="Country"/> <xfd:variable name="State"/> <xfd:variable name="City"/> <fo:page-sequence> <fo:flow> <fo:block> ADDRESS Street Address: ________________________________________ City______ State _______ Country_______ ZipCode __________ </fo:block> <fo:block> <xfd:conditional-block-sequence> <xfd:conditional-block test="$State='UP'"> <fo:block>Uttar Pradesh</fo:block> </xfd:conditional-block> <xfd:conditional-block test="$State='MA'"> <fo:block>Maharashtra</fo:block> </xfd:conditional-block> ..... </xfd:conditional-block-sequence> </fo:block> </fo:flow> </fo:page-sequence> <!-- End of Component --> Q. Can i get value filled for State from the conditional-block-sequence where the design block is followed by conditional-block-sequence block(i.e., both blocks are together in a component)?

	Hi BVS, The only way is to store the filled State in a template declared in Global XSLT (see http://www.ecrion.com/Temp/HelpCache/XFDesigner/framed_hidd_edit_raw_xslt.htm), and get the value using XSLT code (see http://www.ecrion.com/Temp/HelpCache/XFDesigner/framed_hidd_edit_xslt_section.htm). You cannot get the value directly from conditional sequence. Regards, Radu
