html - Dynamically assign values to select tag using Xquery -

i tried drop down using

<select>   <option value="volvo">volvo</option>   <option value="saab">saab</option>   <option value="opel">opel</option>   <option value="audi">audi</option> </select> 

it working well. instead of hard-coded values , dynamically assign values xquery/xpath

example

/leader/country/text() 

so have list of countries above code should go select tag of html

try xquery flwor expression like:

<select>{   $country in /leader/country/string(.)   return <option value="{$country}">{$country}</option> }</select> 

while xpaths on database useful getting started, it's learn search api or cts:search() query performance on large datasets.

hoping helps,
