Joseph,

How about:

<xforms:output ref="instance('main')/employee[id = instance('for-display')/value]/name"/>

For a little more flexibility you could use the 'value' attribute of <xforms:output> instead, which would easily let you output a custom message when no employee is selected, for example.

Erik,

       I have the following requirement:

 

<xforms:model>

            <xforms:instance id=”main”>

                        <main>

                                    <employee>

                                                <name>Tomie</name>

                                                <id>101</id>

                                    </employee>

                                    <employee>

                                                <name>Suzaine</name>

                                                <id>201</id>

                                    </employee>

                                    <employee>

                                                <name>Bruce</name>

                                                <id>301</id>

                                    </employee>

                        </main>

            </xforms:instance>

<xforms:instance id=”for-display”>

<for-display>

            <value/>

</for-display>

</xforms:instance>

</xforms:model>

……….

……….

<xhtml:body>

            <xforms:select1 ref=”instance(‘for-display’)/value” appearance=”minimal”>

                        <xforms:itemset nodeset=” instance(‘main’)/employee”>

                                    <xforms:label ref=”./name”/>

                                    <xforms:value ref=”./id”/>

                        </xforms:itemset>

            </xforms:select1>

            <xforms:output ref=” instance(‘for-display’)/value”/><!—Using this I can display the value of id-->

</xhtml:body>

 

Now my query is, will it be possible that I can output the name of the selected employee

 

Thanks
