Hi Andreas,
Thanks a lot for your answer, Its ok for the update of the list. My problem in fact is to obtain the node from the url or XMLHttpRequest when you say: you can query a new array from the database on the server using a network request (XMLHttpRequest and getURL). I would like to use the same fonctions that I use to retrieve geometry (I already use helpers_functions.js for that). I dont know how to retrieve data that is not <g> or that is not XML like an array of elements Am I obliged to integrate it in a <g> element in my svg before to use it through a js script?

You don't need to remove and add individual elements, you can simply replace the property ".elementsArray" of the second selectionList, e.g. ------- selectionList2.elementsArray = newArray; selectionList2.selectElementByPosition(0,false); ------- note that I propose to also call the method .selectElementByPosition() to make sure that the second selectionlist now displays a valid value of the new array. As an example see http://www.carto. <http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/gui/selectionlist/> net/papers/svg/gui/selectionlist/ index.svg see the two selectionlists at the upper right. See http://www.carto. <http://www.carto.net/papers/svg/gui/selectionlist/init.js> net/papers/svg/gui/selectionlist/init.js and the function "updateNumbers2" to see how I set the new values. you can query a new array from the database on the server using a network request (XMLHttpRequest and getURL). The same also works for comboboxes: see http://www.carto. <http://www.carto.net/williams/> net/williams/ yosemite/, go to the "Search" tab and enter something in the texbox. As you type the values in the combobox are populated with the results of a database query.
