I am a beginner. I have had a good look at the tutorials offered by orbeon. Now here is my problem.

I have a form which contains two textboxes. My requirement is if i enter a value in one text box and click the second one , the latter must b populated with values from db corresponding to the value entered in the first textbox.

Already my tomcat is configured to use mysql.

I figured out that i could use database services and action for it from the link

But it s not self explanatory. Can anyone provide me step by step or atleast good explanation how to do this. Thanks ...
