Great. So what kind of syntax do you want to see? What do you think of my
bindSwitch syntax?

I will have a think about it and get back to you.

The problem with using the template methods is that they pull the node out of
context. So if I need to let the view html file decide how everything is
assembled, then these calls to the template methods have to be used inside a
bind. You can put the alternatives inside a dedicated parent xml

By context I mean where it is in the xml.
For example, br's between the switch and everything else.
In other words, your code implements a switch. But where are you putting it
back in the view? chooseTemplate etc. extract data out of context as oppo'sed
to bind which is in place. And if indeed

It's not that it doesn't do what my code does. But in the long run it doesn't
sound shorter. Also it's not totally based on boxes anymore.
Also, my proposal would allow me to write:
bindSwitch(req, xhtml, Seq(hasClient, noClient),
{(ns:NodeSeq) = xxx match {
case yyy = 0 - bind(client, ns,
I sent my last message before I saw your last message, sorry.
You made a very valid point that I didn't think of--to split the snippet into a
number of snippets.
However that doesn't help everywhere. For example: (breaking it into 2 messages)

For example, I have requests. Every request is of a particular nature. Every
nature specifies a set of location types--for example a Transportation
request has a From and a To--and each type has a set of allowed location
kinds--for example, transportation can be from/to a street address,
Maybe I should write a bindSwitch method? It could take a list of strings out
of which one should be bound and the others should be replaced with
NodeSeq.Empty; and a function that returns a (Int, NodeSeq) indicacating which
one to use and what to replace it with.

I think you're approaching the issue backwards... I'd figure out if you have
a client first and dispatch based on that... I'll work on some code late
morning tomorrow (Monday) for you.

What do you mean by dispatch? This is all taking place inside one screen, just
parts of the screen each change between one set of xhtml and another. It would
be overkill to split the view into separate files -- the html file has about 60
lines (not counting some that are commented out :) ).

No, I meant that this pattern of parts of the view being alternatives to each

I really need to see the resulting view code that you'd like to see

It doesn't, because it has to replace its contents bound, and the other view
part has to be replaced with nothing, so it's less concise than FuncBindParams.
