I restarted from a BaseX-supplied example, here-attached, which works as
expected.
It uses a <bind nodeset="..." /> definition.
Considering nodeset as deprecated in XF2.0 , I changed it to ref, then the
demo fails ! (in a bizarre way).
This asks 2 questions:
- What is the XF version supported by XsltForms: 1.1 + some 2.0?
- Can you reproduce this behaviour (in a non-BaseX system)?
TIA,
Best regards,
Robert.

<h2>BaseX XForms Demo</h2>
<ul>
<li> In this example, the XForms model is defined in the
<code>head</code> section of the XML document.</li>
<li> The XForms model consists of an <b>instance</b> and a <b>binding</b>.</li>
<li> The instance contains the data, and the binding specifies the type
of elements (in this case the <code>date</code> element).</li>
</ul>
<h3>XForm Widgets <small> – coupled to and synchronized with XML Data Model</small></h3>
<ul>
<li> Whenever you modify data in the edit components, the XML data model will
be updated, and all other output and input components will reflect the changes.</li>
<li> XForms also cares about type conversion: as the <code>date</code>
element is of type <code>xs:date</code>: a date picker is offered.</li>
</ul>
<div>Below, three different views on the XForms model are supplied. Please open the source
view of this HTML document to see how the input and output fields are specified.</div>
