I want to switch to another view when a drop-down select changed, but got
error below:

"Invalid context for OM call Infopath"

The function is:

function msoxd_my_secondarycategory::OnAfterChange(eventObj)
{
var objMyDropdown;
objMyDropdown =
XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("//my:category/my:secondarycategory");

if ( objMyDropdown.text == "133" )
XDocument.View.SwitchView('Software Request');
}

Basically you can't do it onAfterChange. Read more on why here:

Instead you might want to use a button to "evaluate" the change and run the
OnClick script which would permit this.
