Basically I want the user to hit the drop down box and select a file from a specified directory and then populate a series of text boxes with values from the selected file. The file types are all xml. So this is my way of displaying the values defined in the xml. I just cannot seem to get the value of the myselect.selectedItem.data to function in file="expandpath(#myselect.selectedItem.data#)" Any help would be greatly appreciated.
