Hello all, Everyone is no doubt aware of the powerful dependency-engine at the heart of XForms, but there is little discussion about how it works 'under the hood'. Although understanding the engine is not crucial to programming XForms, we often find that at a certain point, programmers invariably find they need to modularise large forms, both for maintenance and performance reasons. Anyone looking to replace one large model with lots of smaller ones should find 'Understanding the XForms dependency-engine' [1] (which is part of our 'Programming with formsPlayer and XForms' handbook [2]) a useful overview.
