dynamic select boxes in XMLForms?
Hi, all.
I tried the XMLForm wizard demo where I see some select boxes created for
processor, ram, servlet engine and java version elements in ths system
information page.
I see the values for those are hard coded in 'system.xml' and I want to
create a select box from a DOM Node. I got the following:
<EquipmentTypes>
<EquipmentType id="player">
<Description>Description of the player type</Description>
</EquipmentType>
<EquipmentType id="recorder">
<Description>Description of the recorder type</Description>
</EquipmentType>
</EquipmentTypes>
I would like to create a select box (one of the dropdown type) and have:
1.- value of every option element as the EquipmentType/@id
2.- text displayed of every option as the EquipmentType/Description
I've tried with a xf:repeat with no luck. I also tried with just one element
but no luck either. I guess is something with the stylesheet. The
'xmlform2html.xsl' doesn't seem to check 'ref' attributes on option
elements. I guess the solution will be the customization of that stylesheet
to my needs...am I right?
Thanks.

Look closer at the demo and examine the itemset elements under the select
elements.
