I see. You can get known parameter values with the extended
functions, e.g.:

<xforms:setvalue ref="my-param" value="xxforms:get-request-parameter('myparam')"/>

http://www.orbeon.com/ops/doc/reference-xforms-functions

To get the url, you can use the request generator processor

http://www.orbeon.com/ops/doc/processors-generators-request

in an xpl file with an output param. And the file is the
model attribute of your page flow. Then, e.g.:

<xforms:instance src="input:data"/>

(If I have it right this time)

Cheers,
Hank
