Orbeon Forms: Passing Data between Global/Application Library and the Form

Question

We are currently using the Global and Application Libraries in our forms.

However we cannot work out how to reference data between the two libraries.

So the lower form has data in SECTION-A (global library) and we want to pull some of that data into SECTION-3 (application library).

We have tried using the following xPath format in a controls Initial Value box:

• //Field_Name_In_SECTION_A
• xxf:instance('|fr-form-instance|')//Field_Name_In_SECTION_A

But neither appear to work.

Any ideas?

Many thanks in advance.

It was a publishing issue..

The following option does work:

• xxf:instance('|fr-form-instance|')//Field_Name_In_SECTION_A
