Ah.. I must have been still a sleep. I'll try to have a look today as well. The suggestion list has the ability for an attribute type='java', but the flowscript part I have no idea yet.

Hmm, thanx for your quick replies.

however you are referring to the "selection-list" while I would like to use the new "suggestion-list". an example is provided within the latest cocoon cforms samples, but the suggestion-list is created via javascript (which is very hard to debug). so my question is: is there a way to do that in java?

  <fd:field id="personId">
      <fd:datatype base="integer"/>
      <fd:initial-value>16</fd:initial-value>

        function personList() {
          return [

Hi Garbriel,

It is possible to create a Java selection  list. In the forms block
samples a Java selection list is used for the second  selection list of
birthdays.

http://cocoon.zones.apache.org/demos/release/samples/blocks/forms/form1

Kind regards,
