Master-Detail listbox

Must the detail list be loaded dynamically, or can all the data fit in
a single (XML) document?

Dear Erik

Both are possible. Some can come from XML hard-coded, some we would want to retrieve dynamically.

Please kindly advise.

Thanks!

Samuel,

i've attached a simple example demonstrating such a combination of two
select1 controls.

It contains three instances: "main" hold the country selected by the
user, "temp" stores the selected continent, and "countries" lists the
continents and countries available.

The first of the select1 controls sets the continent in the temp
instance, the second one gets its nodeset depending on that selection.

If the "countries" instance data should change dynamically, a possible
solution would be to split that instance into two, a "continents" and a
"countries" instance, and use a xforms:submission to populate the
"countries" on a change of the selected 'continent'.
