So, just to double-check, if I have

<instance a>
<instance b>

<bind: nodeset:a constraint="..">
<bind: nodeset:b constraint="..">

<submission instance="instance a">

Both a and b will be evaluated for correctness before submission, right? Even though instance b isn't being submitted to anything, it still will be checked?

Stephanie,

You managed to create a simpler example that works, and have a more complex version of that code that doesn't work. Looks like you've done the hard part; now you "just" need to figure out the gap! ;)
