the generated options have empty values. the labels are ok.
It seems that that the template expression are differently evaluated.
an suggestions?

    </fx-fore>
</div>
</body>

from dev-tools FireFox latest Ubuntu

<option value="">cal-u-pmh</option>

the namespaced data are normally loaded from a server:
providers.xml

<Bundle xmlns="http://hl7.org/fhir">
    <id value="bundle-example"/>
    <meta>
        <lastUpdated value="2025-07-26T18:35:48"/>
    </meta>
    <type value="searchset"/>
    <total value="1"/>
    <entry>
        <fullUrl value=""/>
        <resource>
            <ICal>
                <id value="cal-u-pmh"/>
                <actor>
                    <reference value="Practitioner/u-pmh"/>
                    <display value="Herkenrath"/>
                </actor>
            </ICal>
        </resource>
        <search>
            <mode value="match"/>
            <score value="1"/>
        </search>
    </entry>
</Bundle>

Hello Peter, Did you try to use wildcard selectors in there, so /*:X/*:X instead of /X/X? That should at least tell us whether the problem is with namespaces. Select does use a different way to evaluate template strings, but I do not expect namespaces to be a thing. KR, Martin

btw
for making some progress until the above problem is solved, I tried to load the same data as json (no namespace ;-).
to get the select working I had to add a '?*' after the repeating prop (the json demo on github uses a repeat ref without this)

That looks like a clear bug. Thanks for finding it! Could you open an issue? Interesting that its broken. Might be that using no prefixes also works. There is an implicit namespace management that uses the namespace/prefix pairs defined on the root of the loaded XML. A bit implicit, but may be an acceptable work-around for now.
