repeat index is always 1

I have a xforms:repeat and it's iterating over a set of identical elements.

In the user interface there is a yellow row highlighting the first html table row that the repeat outputs.

When I try to use the index function to get the position of the loop it always returns 1.

Why is this?

John,

The index represents the currently selected repeat row. If you don't
use xf:setindex to change that, or if the user doesn't click on
another repeat iteration, the index will stay 1.

If you are looking for the position, use the position() function instead.
