Re: Displaying select items in a row

This is a question of styling by the host language (probably XFDL in your 
case), not a question of the underlying XForms.

So, this type of question is best directed to the support of the vendor.

Since I happen to know the answer, though, here it is:

<checkgroup sid="c">
   <xforms:select ...>
        <xforms:label>...
        <xforms:itemset ...>
               ...
               <xforms:extension>
                      <itemlocation> <after compute="itemprevious"/> 
</itemlocation>
               </xforms:extension>
...

We let the extension element be used to add host language extras to the 
generated items, including positioning information like the above.

Displaying select items in a row






We are working on an application using XForms here in IBM. I am trying to 
display the options(checkboxes) in a SELECT element differently than in a 
column(default). Like in a row or maybe in different cells of a table. Is 
it possible? If the answer is yes then a simple example would be highly 
appreciated.
