Submitting Mobile Form Data to Adobe CQ

You can create an Adobe CQ mobile form using JQuery Mobile API. When a mobile user fills in the form and clicks the submit button, form data is submitted to Adobe CQ. You can develop an OSGi bundle operation to process the submitted form data to meet your business requirements. For example, consider the following CQ mobile insurance claim form.

When a mobile user fills in this CQ mobile claim form and submits the data, an OSGi bundle processes the data by persisting it in the Adobe JCR. A claim number is generated on the server and returned to the mobile device and displayed in the first field (see the previous illustration).

This development article guides you through creating a mobile form using the JQuery Mobile API and an OSGi bundle that handles the form submission. To read this development article, click:

NOTE: For information about how to use a Sling Post Servlet to submit mobile data to the Adobe JCR as opposed to using an OSGi bundle as discussed in this article, see http://scottsdigitalcommunity.blogspot.ca/2013/05/submitting-mobile-data-to-adobe-cq.html.
