> We're looking at using Orbeon to render forms for our workflow engine. We
> need to track the form a user is working on. Our initial idea is to generate
> a SESSIONID unique to the user's form and pass it to Orbeon as a request
> parameter. We want to forward this SESSIONID to every service and the final
> submit.

> With services it seems like we can do something like this
> http://wiki.orbeon.com/forms/how-to/load-initial-form-data#TOC-The-pull-solution
>
> <xforms:submission id="load-data-submission"
>                     method="get" serialization="none"
>
> resource="http://myserver.edu/service?sessionid={xxforms:get-request-parameter('sessionid')}"
>                     replace="instance" instance="user-data"/>
>
>
> The problem is with the send button send.uri property, there's no way to
> attach the sessionid as it's just a string:
> <property as="xs:anyURI" name="oxf.fr.detail.send.uri.*.*"
> value="http://myserver.edu/submit"/>
>
> In the mailing list there was some mention of Orbeon passing the JSESSIONID,
> but I'm not sure if that's is the best route...it seems messy.

> Is there any way to pass request parameters to all services and the submit
> url similar to request parameter passing in this section?:
