I am a relatively recent convert to Zend, and I've no prior experience with
Dojo - I've read the documents I've been able to find, and scan-read a
couple of books, but am now feeling a little bemused. I'm sure there's
something 'obvious' I'm missing, but I'm not sure what... I'm hoping a hint
from a Zend/Dojo enthusiast will point me in the right direction.

My objective is to create a 'dynamic form' (my own description) where, near
the top of the form, there's a Zend_Dojo_Form_Element_FilteringSelect - the
selection in which determines which of a number mutually exclusive fields
should be displayed below. I'm hoping to use a
Zend_Dojo_Form_Decorator_StackContainer (in a sub-form) and populate that
with a sub-form for each of the (sequences of) mutually exclusive fields.
(This strategy seems to work for a Dojo_Form_TabContainer - though,
obviously, this permits the user to supply values for irrelevant fields...)

I've come unstuck at at the point that I want to, somehow, 'connect' the
Zend_Dojo_Form_Element_FilteringSelect Dijit to the
Zend_Dojo_Form_Decorator_StackContainer. I'm aware that I'll need to
generate (or write) some Javascript... but I'm not sure where to start.
Should I be writing it as part of the view - in Javascript directly? If so,
what is the interface? Can this be done programmatically in PHP - using the
framework to generate the Javascript?

Is anyone aware of a working example that does something like this? I'm
aware that my next hurdle will be to, somehow, construct a response from my
form/sub-forms and submit that to the server as a post. Is it recommended to
do this with JSON (and, if so, how is that done?) or is there a better (more
simple) approach?

Thanks in advance for any pointers...
