Dependant Dropdowns in Repeating Table

Hi,

I have a repeating table which contains two drop downs, the first is
populated directly from a secondry data source (webservice) and the second is
also populated from the secondry data source but filtered according to the
result of the first drop down.

This works fine for the first row but in every row thereafter the second
drop down is filtered by the result of the first drop down in the first row.

The filter for the second drop down was built using InfoPaths built in
wizard and this does seems to produce an Xpath query that does not allow for
the context within the repeating table.

Any suggestions would be much appreciated, Thanks,

Simon

You need to use XPath's current() function; more info is on the InfoPath
