I am using Adobe LiveCyle 7.1.

There are some many examples on how to connect LiveCycle Form to SQL Database, and how to navigate thorugh the data records and how to filter them ... how to perform lookup .... etc. .. very nice in deed.

But, I faild to find one single example on how to do exactly the same if the records are comming from an XML Data Source.

I need a sample script on the same kind of examples (Movie Categories Sample), but the Data Source is not SQL Server, it is "XML". I wan to write JavaScript to perfrom lookup, search, sort and filtering the records using some criteria.

Please help.

Tarek.

Just posting a quick update ...

I figured out how to select a subset of the XML Nodes Structure using SOM Predicate Expressions .... in FormCalc and JavaScript ... so cool !

I am now developing a working sample, and I will try to post some details soon.
