Re: XForm

Curtis,

I don't know which XForms implementation you are using, but with  
Orbeon Forms, using XHTML is required, and that implies putting your  
XHTML elements in a namespace, e.g.:

   <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:xf="http://www.w3.org/2002/xforms 
">

If you do so, be aware that you will have to make sure your instance  
data is not in the XHTML namespace:

   <course xmlns="">
     ...

Alternatively, you can use explicit prefixes on all XHTML elements:

   <xhtml:html xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:xf="http://www.w3.org/2002/xforms 
">
     <xhtml:head>
       ...

The modified attached version works for me.
