I’m afraid I forgot to access the “value” property everywhere in my script (from comment #3 above) where I access a node property in the “returnNode” variable.

Thanks for pointing this out to me. I have updated the script in the comment with the changes.

thanks in advance!

If rootXml.customersByIdResponse.return is an “array”, then I’m assuming that rootXml.customersByIdResponse has multiple “return” nodes underneath it. In that case, you would do something like this:

// JavaScript:

utils.itemMap = new Object(); // initialize map
KUNNR.clearItems(); // initialize list

for (var i = 0; i < rootXml.customersByIdResponse.nodes.length; i++)
{
    var returnNode = rootXml.customersByIdResponse.nodes.item(i);

    // add new list item setting name as item text (displayed)
    //  and id as item value (hidden)
    KUNNR.addItem(returnNode.theName.value, returnNode.theId.value);

    // add entry to itemMap for this node which is an object that
    //  contains three properties: city, country, street
    utils.itemMap[returnNode.theId.value] =
        {city: returnNode.city.value, country: returnNode.country.value,
        street: returnNode.street.value};
}

Later, in the KUNNR's Change event, you can retrieve the city, country and street info like this:

// JavaScript:

var selectedId = this.boundItem(xfa.event.newText);
var itemInfo = utils.itemMap[selectedId];

xfa.host.messageBox("Selected item info: " + itemInfo.city + " " +
    itemInfo.country + " " + itemInfo.street);

Notes:

• I changed "id" and "name" to "theId" and "theName" because using "id" and "name" and node names can cause conflicts because these are also properties on almost all XFA objects.
• I'm assuming you have a Script Object named "utils" in which there is a declaration of a variable named "itemMap": "var itemMap = null;" Variables in Script Objects keep their values as long as the Form DOM isn't reset.
• On an object variable, obj["string"] adds a new dynamic property to that object that is named "string".
• You can create new objects with dynamic properties with the following syntax: {propertyName: propertyValue, ...}

Aug 26, 2009 — Fixed script by adding ".value" property accessors on node properties within the "returnNode" object.

if (rootXml)
{
Name.rawValue = rootXml.customersByIdResponse.return.name.value;
ORT.rawValue = rootXml.customersByIdResponse.return.city.value;
LAND.rawValue = rootXml.customersByIdResponse.return.country.value;
STRASSE.rawValue = rootXml.customersByIdResponse.return.street.value;
}
else if (soapFault)
{
//ListBox1.addItem(“Fault code: ” + soapFault.code);
//ListBox1.addItem(“Fault message: ” + soapFault.message);
}
}

“return” is the array and i populate the ddlb with “name” and “id” but want to read the “city”, “country” “street” later (when the user selects one entry of the dropdownlistbox)

please help me, i tried to populate a drop down list box (worked via binding).
but if the answer of the webservice contained more information i wanted to store it in a table and i failed…
