Andre,
Thanks for the tip on: http://jira.openlaszlo.org/jira/browse/LPP-8323
As long as you don't update the underlying datasource, any new
replication won't preserve the previously entered text (except for
pooling replication, just as you described). So in your case, you need
to call "datapath.updateData()" for every "onvalue" / "onblur" / ...
event on your edittext.
In reference to my comment:

> dsSurvey.data[1].appendChild(newNode);

Some alternatives:
- dsSurvey.getFirstChild().getNextSibling().appendChild(...)
- dsSurvey.getLastChild().appendChild(...)
- dsSurvey.getPointer().xpathQuery("/children[1]").appendChild(...)
I was looking for a way to add a note based on the relative datapath
of the view, but couldn't figure out what suntax would do that (rather
than using the global reference to the dataset "dsSurvey" in this case)
Thanks,
Sarah
p.s. cc'ing laszlo-user in case anyone else wants to chime in and
since the answer might be interesting to others
