.. and posting to action afterwards

in continuation of previous post, you can use the form engine to retrieve your properties for current node and post to your action for special handling by using the share action settings:

<param name="mode">create</param>
<param name="submissionUrl">/api/action/ACTION-ID/formprocessor</param>

Where ACTION-ID is the bean action is in the repo, and mode must be create for html id 'alf_destination' which is needed by ActionFormProcessor :)

Best of both worlds, properties retrieved by form framework and action handling ...
