I have been working with Mod-DB and XMLForm and found that when you use 
the DatabaseSelectAction the values selected from the DB are stored in 
the request header. If you use <xsp-request:get-attribute-names> it will 
give you an attribute name like 
org.apache.cocoon.components.modules.output.OutputModule:users.name[0] 
where names[0] is an array of names based on your select statement, ie. 
"select id, names from sometable where id = 1". If only one row is 
retrieved then there is only one value in the array. This can be used to 
populate the form.
