Ok, I finally managed to make it work.
so now the answer...
as I said, I did it exactly the same way as the example:
<form id="selectForm">
<sx:autocompleter theme="simple" name="select" list="{'fruits','colors'}"
value="colors" notifyTopics="/Changed" />
</form>
Autocompleter 2 <sx:autocompleter href="%{#autoex}" formId="selectForm"
listenTopics="/Changed"/>
and here we never get the result (the selected thing). Of course if we want
to have it we have to add name="mySelectedValue" and have a
setMySelectedValue in the action class.
This value should be necessary, for example, to generate a third list, or
whatever.
But what I didn't know was that we have to surround the second autocompleter
by
<s:form id="selectForm2">...</s:form>, and to reference it to the tag which
needs it.
now I realize, as expected, that the solution was really simple, but I
hadn't seen this explanation anywhere before...
