Greetings Roman, the section describing the xforms-form-control-initialize Event describes what happens. [ http://www.w3.org/TR/xforms/slice4.html#evt-formControlInitialize ] There are two basic situations which can lead to there being no instance data node for the UI element to bind to. 1) No <instance> was supplied in which case an instance data node will be created when the UI element is initialised. 2) There is an <instance> but there is nothing for the UI element to bind to, in this case the UI control should behave as if it was bound to a non-relevant node.

I thought that I read it somewhere in the spec but I couldn't find the passage again. What happens if I refer from a xform control to an element in my xforms:instance, which doesn't yet exist? Is it (the instance element)created when the user fills in the form control? Or do I have to define a trigger, whichs creates the needed instance elements before? wbr, Roman Roman Huditsch (hRHU ) Developer .:.
