[ODK Community] XForms/Selecting Codes From webservice

No. ODK Collect is intended for disconnected operations.

ODK Survey (now in public alpha) can, however, do ajax calls in the
javascript to populate drop-downs.

Hi There,
Is there way to populate the drop down using a web request live?
Xforms seems to have a future. But I couldn't see ODK usage example any
where.

Any examples...

Thanks,

There's some documentation on how to use the queries sheet to populate a
select type question here:
http://code.google.com/p/opendatakit/wiki/XLSForm2Docs#queries
If you get stuck, let us know where and we'll use that information to
improve the documentation.
If you're trying to do something other than populate select questions, we
might not support it at the moment, but we would be very interested to hear
about the use case.
