Updating instance node using action refresh

Hello,

I am trying to update value of an instance node on button click. I am expecting that after setvalue and refresh events, the instance node as well as the form controls are updated with the new value.

Here is the code.

<xforms:trigger appearance="full">
    <xforms:label>Update</xforms:label>
    <xforms:setvalue bind="instance('person-instance')/person/status" value="active">
        <xforms:message ev:event="xforms-binding-exception " level="modal">
            bind error
        </xforms:message>
    </xforms:setvalue>
    <xforms:refresh ev:event="DOMActivate"/>
    <xforms:message ev:event="DOMActivate" level="modal">Updated value is
        <xforms:output value="instance('person-instance')/person/status"></xforms:output>
    </xforms:message>
</xforms:trigger>

 Nothing happens after i click the button. I also observed that i am not getting any bind errors even if the node binding expression is invalid. I think I am missing on something very preliminary.

Thanks Hank. I did not realize that.

But even when I correct it to value="'active'" no luck :(

Hi Madhuri,

Note that value="active" is different than value="'active'" such that without quotes (single quote)

around the value it is interpreted as an XPath statement.

Cheers,

Hank
