Hi Tony,

I'm doing an independent study at Cal State East Bay on GME.

Can you send me an invitation to GME?

Hi

Just got my invite and been trying to get my head round the functionality offered by the mashup editor (which is loads of fun - but it's late and I'm not thinking too clearly:-)

So - here's a question for which there is probably an obvious answer: how do I get a list that's populated by a feed selected from a drop down list to refresh when I select a new feed?

I guessed from the examples at:

function changeData() { var entry=getYear(); //get the URL from a drop down list/select box; var urlGPath = new GPath("gd:url"); var urlString = urlGPath.getValue(entry); google.mashups.getObjectById('IWMW').setData(urlString); //not refreshing list for some reason... }

which acts on this list:

<gm:list id="IWMW" data="http://www.ukoln.ac.uk/web-focus/events/ workshops/webmaster-2007/speakers/speakers.xml" template="speakersTemplate" />

with a template like this:

<gm:template id="speakersTemplate"> <table width="50%"> <tbody repeat="true"> <tr> <td> <b><gm:text ref="atom:title"/></b> </td> </tr> </table> </gm:template>

but when I select a new item in the list all that happens is the old list disappears...

The code is commented away at:http://iwmwdemo1.googlemashups.com/

The data is picked up from this competition
(http://ukwebfocus.wordpress.com/2007/05/30/data-available-for-iwmw-20... ) which may be of interest to some on the list...
