Hi Alex,
Sorry about that. The parenthesis wasn't missing from my xforms document, just when I pasted it here. It works in a standalone example but not in my main form, so I am trying to figure out what is going on. I don't think you guys will be able to help me with that, but thanks anyway!
Stephanie

Stephanie,
There is a closing parenthesis missing at the end of the XPath expression. Adding it, with the small example I created here, I can see the field being marked as invalid, as expected. If the problem is not with the closing parenthesis, could you post a full (but simple) example that runs in the XForms sandbox and reproduces this?
Alex
