"choices" element inside a select?

Support
1

Hi,

According to the XForms specification:

""
The choices Element
This element is used within selection form controls to group available
choices. This provides the same functionality as element optgroup in HTML.
""

I thought this meant that I could use it in a tag like this:

... ... ... ... ... ...

However, this does not work. ODK Collect gives me the error: "select has
no choices".

What am I missing?

Thanks
m.

odk implements javarosa's subset of xforms. that subset doesn't have
the choices tag.
