The Repeat Template

The template is created from any tags that are inside the repeat element itself, and can include any HTML and XForms tags, including the repeat element. A moment ago we set the template to a simple ellipsis:

      <xf:repeat nodeset="instance('inst-rs')/photos/photo">
        [...]
      </xf:repeat>

This will give us enough to test with, so save and refresh the form, and try searching for something--you should see as many ellipses as there are search results:

Now that we know that both the search and our repeat are working fine, let's fill out the repeat template.

We'll first use a simple output control to show the title of each of the photos returned from Flickr, before we then move on to show how to display the actual image.
