dm:values

Creates a value list element. A values element takes an iterator as a nested element, calls getNextValue() on it, calls getObject() on the resulting value, and sets that object into context under the name given by the id attribute.

dm:values is most commonly used with a nested dmf:forEach element, which returns a value that contains a Values object. The Values object, a collection that contains the results of the forEach, is set into context, and can be accessed later by the id attribute.
