Subject: XPages - the most basic of help
Feedback Type: Question
Product Area: Domino Designer on Eclipse (DDE)
Technical Area: Customization
Platform: Windows Vista client
Release: 8.5
Reproducible: Unknown

I'm trying to get into XPages development. A huge thank you to all the big brains out there blogging amazing examples of what is possible. I'm having ridiculous trouble even getting started. I have a document with a multi value field on it, and I would like to display those values in an XPage, with a new line for a seperator. I won't entertain you with my struggles so far, but I have an XPage with a Domino Document Data Source, and all the drag and drop stuff seems to work great. But when I try to customize anything, it's like trying to pilot an alien spacecraft for me, learning the new IDE and referencing sparse documentation. I think what I want is a Computed Field Core Control, then Bind data using: Javascript (server side), then something with NotesXspDocument.getItemValue, then profit? Or is there some other way I should go about it?

I can get this:

[value1, value2, value3...]

when what I want is this:

value1
value2
value3
...

Even the slightest nudge in the right direction would be hugely appreciated, a working snippet of code and I might start crying. I had the feeling that a breakthrough would come eventually and it would all start making sense to me, but that feeling is slowly fading :-(
