Can I develop in orbeon but save to a mysql db?

Am developing an application using xforms and its the first web based application am working on, so completely new to all this but we all start from somewhere right? I have been coding from IBM's visual form designer but since its not at all user friendly I have been writting the codes myself as I learn. Now my deadline is catching up and am still behind. Being tempted to use Orbeon forms but I know nothing about it. What are the conns and pros of Orbeon forms? Can i use it to design my interface but then interact with a mysql database? Please advice.

You can configure Orbeon Forms to store data in MySQL for forms you create in Form Builder. The data will be stored in Orbeon-specific tables. If you need the data to end up in some custom tables that you already have, you can setup triggers in MySQL to insert the data in your own table when Orbeon Forms adds the data to its own tables.
