  Step 5 : Repeats and groups

Creating a new content definition dynamically - (page 1 of 5)

Level: basic

In this "how to" we will build a up content definition. Content definitions are used to define how to create, view and store content.
Each content definition consists:
  Name of the type
  A set of fields, which define the structure of the content
  A set of groups, which provide repeatable data structures in the content
  Storage information, which provides information on how to store the content explained here


Internally all content is represented as XML. In the content definition interface it is possible to see the schema of the XML, and also the xforms definition of the form that edits it.
