Working with sections in Orbeon: open / close programmaticaly

Hello,

I would like to make a link on my form by clicking which I will be able to open / close a certain section in Orbeon Forms.
Is there any possibility to do this programmaticaly in Orbeon forms? Using javascript? Xpath?
So far I have not found any reference to do that using XPath.

Thanks a lot in advance.

<xforms:switch>
<xforms:case id="foo-case">

</xforms:case>
<xforms:case id="bar-case">

</xforms:case>
</xforms:switch>

Re: Working with sections in Orbeon: open / close programmaticaly

Hello Erik,

Thanks a lot for reply.

Is this solution also applicable to <fr:section> tag (from Form Runner)?
In my original post I meant a section which we can create using the above tag.
I tried to see the HTML output of Orbeon, and I found there are 2 cases: "case-button-closed", and "case-open". Can or Should I reuse them?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Rovsh,

fr:section supports 2 events: fr-expand and fr-collapse. Say you have:

<fr:section id="my-section">

You should be able to write:

<xf:dispatch name="fr-expand" targetid="my-section"/>
