  <title>Car selector</title>
  <para>This example illustrates:
     <ul>
        <li>how you can programmatically update the content of a selection list,</li>
        <li>the AJAX features that allow partial page reloads and the associated visual effects.</li>
     </ul>
  </para>
  <para>
    Event-handlers are defined in the form definition to update the selection lists and set
    the comment text below the table. This requires only a few lines of server-side JavaScript.
    Selection widgets also have a "submit-on-change" attribute set in the form template so that
    changes are considered immediately by the server.
  </para>
  <para>
    See "carselector_form.xml" and "carselector_template.xml" to see how this is done.
