I was at a lecture by Dr Hoylen Sue on Xforms yesterday.
One of the people responsible for that web site.

Xforms looks promising, especially if you look at the online demos with the right 
tools (but they are few and far between on the browser side).
He mentioned FormsPlayer: http://www.formsplayer.com/ a proprietary solution and 
rather hefty 5mb plugin or X-Smiles: http://www.xsmiles.org/ a java web browser as  
two option to view the client side demos.  Got formsplayer running and xforms is 
impressive, I would suggest if you have 20 minutes to spare go get the plugin and look 
at the demos on http://xforms.dstc.edu.au/  and play with Suncorp loan application 
form, see sections of questions appear depending on your answer to a question.

The server side solution using an Xforms server such as Chiba 
http://chiba.sourceforge.net/ is probably the only solution in the anything but a 
small intranet environment, but it does give the full power of xforms.
