I can see how to use the dynamic facilities to allow the user to create and populate nodes but at the end of the client's work I would like them to hit 'submit' on a form and pass all data they have created to the server for processing. How do I pass the data back to the server in the java sliding menu?
A: You are able to paste any html code within java sliding menu items.
For example:
