How do I concatenate a field from a repeating group?

[Steve]

Hi,

What's the best way to concatenate a field that appears in a repeating
group. For instance, I have a contact selector on a form and I want to have
all the display names concatenated into another field on the form.

So if there are 3 people selected I want to have a field that combines the 3
"DisplayName" values like "User One, User Two, User Three".

Thanks.

This example was used for email addresses, but you can do something similar
for your display names. See

You need code to do this. Use .selectNodes() to get each of the nodes...
iterate through them and build your concatenated string from their values.
