Not currently i fear. Though it shouldn't be a general problem -
meaning it can be done.

label/@src is currently only supporting text or xml as response type
and these this is even only a non-normative feature of XForms 1.1.
Chiba does support this feature but a mediatype is not supported.

A first step to do the XForms way would be to nest an output within the label:
<xf:label><xf:output ref="pathToImageInInstance"
mediatype="image/*"/></xf:label>

This at least would be the right syntax in XForms 1.1 to get what you want.

But we don't have the client-side control yet to display those images
in a select1. Depending on what you like to see in your UI (a dropdown
with images or a group of checkboxes with an image next to them) we
would need to adapt our XSLT and eventually Javascript to get there.

Please let us know if that's a mission-critical feature for you. We'll
see what we can do.

Btw, from your address i see that you're in Germany. Please let us
know in case you like  a more direct contact (we're in Berlin). Just
send your question to the user list.

Best,

Joern
