problems faced using xforms:repeat with xforms:insert

Hi
This is a code snippet from an XForm that I wrote recently:

I have some data in the instance.

Now ,I need to model a repeat homogenous structure, ( a table that "Name" "SSN" and "DOB" Fields in it)

I have 3 input fields above this "yet-to-grow" table named "My Name" " SSN" and "DOB" respectively.
I make some entries into each of these fields and then press a button called "Save My Different Name" and then I need to see  these very entries written as new entries into the table below that is intially empty. For example, if I entered " John Doe", "222222222" and "12/14/1896" then these entries need to be written into the table. After this, I would be able to repeat this process and add more entries.

My XForm does work only partially , because it looks like only one entry is written into the table, but ****the first entry gets written into the table as I type entries into the text input entry fields.******

Well, after the entries need to be successfully entered, I need to have a button "View Different Names I have used in the past"  that when pressed should refresh the current entries in the table and bring up for me a wholly different view of the table that will give me the value already stored in the instance in addition to the ones I entered recently.

I am going through the Orbeon sample as well as the other samples on this forum to help myself out in the meanwhile.
Instance:

---

<fe:input>
   <fe:aliasLookUpTable>
               <fe:my_name_column_entry>McQuaker McOats</fe:my_name_column_entry>
               <fe:my_dob_column_entry>12/14/1976</fe:my_dob_column_entry>
                <fe:my_ssn_column_entry>111111111</fe:my_ssn_column_entry>
     </fe:aliasLookUpTable>
</fe:input>
----
<fe:output>
   <fe:aliasLookUpTable>
               <fe:my_name_column_entry>ilango</fe:my_name_column_entry>
               <fe:my_dob_column_entry>12/14/1976</fe:my_dob_column_entry>
                <fe:my_ssn_column_entry>111111111</fe:my_ssn_column_entry>
     </fe:aliasLookUpTable>
</fe:output>

If you want to increase the chances of someone in the mailing list  
being able to help you, I recommend you post about a very specific  
problem (I click here; I expect A; I get B), and post an example that  
we can run in the XForms sandbox. You might also find this useful:
