Stephanie,

Yes, typically you'll call the servlet from XForms using an  
xforms:submission replace="instance". So you'll send XML to the  
servlet, and get XML back. You store the XML you receive in another  
instance, and decide what to do next based on what you got, like maybe  
display an error message which is inside the payload returned by the  
servlet.
