Hank,

I am wondering if you get this exception HttpClient exception because
it wants more characters (such as the brackets) to be encoded. I use
the _query =... trick a lot, and often use it with encode-for-uri().
E.g.:

<xforms:submission method="get" action="...?_query={encode-for-uri
(...)}"/>

You can't use an AVT in <xforms:instance src="...">, but you can run a
submission on xforms-model-construct-done and put the oxfords:readonly
on that submission.
