Down low, too slow. Patch incoming. New syntax implemented for CInclude to allow xpointers. Will need help testing as my CInclude experience includes about 1 entire day of goofing with the sucker. http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/createattachment.cgi?id=10540 I added a "select" attribute to CInclude that supports the XPointer syntax without the XPointer() part (just what would go between the ()'s). (This is cleaner than the #XPointer() url-suffix nastiness). Hopefully, one of the CInclude geniuses will take a look at this and make it better. I was baffled by the tall inheritance tree. Mostly I borrowed the code from XInclude and made it look more like CInclude without actually understanding Avalon. Anyhow, if someone will kindly apply this or an even better version then my issue will be satisfied and probably others who might want to populate HTML lists, selects, etc in XMLForm webapps. Plus it will solve the hole in between XInclude and CInclude. (anything in this email that sounds arrogant is actually a whole day/weekend of frustration suddenly alleviated -- exuberance) Thanks, -Andy > > > > ----- Original Message ----- > From: "Andrew C.
