My integer is an sql count(*) operation result from database, for
example and i can't compute it locally.

I don't wand to show/hide something (with CSS & bind/relevant) but do
some action. The wanted feature like in XSLT:

<xforms:action ev:event="DOMActivate">
      <xforms:choose>
          <xforms:when test="instance('first_step')//count_result = 0">
              <xforms:send submission="ws_1"/>
          </xforms:when test="instance('first_step')//count_result = 1">
          <xforms:when test="instance('first_step')">
              <xforms:send submission="ws_2"/>
          </xforms:when>
          <xforms:otherwise">
              <xforms:toggle case="case3"/>
          </xforms:otherwise>
       </xforms:choose>
</xforms:action>

Thanx for answer anyway and sorry for my casual english.
