ok if I swap it over the previous section then?


Yes, please do.  I am not interested in saving the comments (wiki
history will do that for us), just in hammering out the best design.


ok, still have to though

+ (''tim: I was thinking of offering both forms, not just one-or-the-other, because I have usecases for both.'')

ah, wasn't clear, I like the idea, just have to make the syntax clear then


Yes, any suggestions for the "c switch"-like syntax? Or do you just mean
that the explaination needs to be more understandable?


nope you got me allright we just have to find a good syntax for them both, right? proposing here and now:

switch-like:
<fb:choice expression="">
<fb:when result="">
<fb:otherwise>

ifelseif-like
<fb:choice>
<fb:when test="">
<fb:otherwise>

wdyt?

+ *What namespace should the widget id's be in? (''mpo: supposing you refer to namespacing with respect to generated request-parameter names, right?'') (''tim: yes'')

I'll rephrase our dialog as an extra clarification then


Thanks.


another still todo



+ ''mpo comments: I would prefer the case/@expr and default to become when/@test and otherwise''//

+ ''tim comments: when/@test would be fine with me; should we also copy the word 'choose' from xslt, instead of using 'choice'? 'choice' seems more declarative, but I would be ok with either word.''

choose points at processing and doing the action choice makes it an entity

the latter seems to hint that there is actually a widget with its own value to be used for driving the choice?


There will be an actual widget, because we have to store the previous
choice to be able to tell if the new choice is different and thus
requires action, such as creating the associated widgets.  This will
also solve the early validation problem the union widget introduced to
the field widget. By this reasoning, the name should be "choice", right?


thx for clarifying again, this is how I (thought I) remembered the discussion (been some time)


I'm ok either way, only slightly favouring the noun.
