I'm just starting to look at using Cforms and there are a few things
that I don't find obvious (and I'm an XML document-head, not a Java 
programmer :-)

I think I've grokked definitions and templates, and the flowscript
and pipelines seem do-able.

The application will need to gather new data from a user. Some of the
values will need to be written to new XML instances on the server;
other values will need to update existing XML files on the server, 
either by changing existing element data content or attributes within 
the file, or by inserting a new element with several subelements at 
the end of the file (ie immediately before the end-tag of the root 
element.

The simple XML binding seems to be the obvious one, but the section
labelled "Usage" http://cocoon.apache.org/2.1/userdocs/xmlbinding.html
is completely opaque to me and I can't find an example to refer to.

The standard binding makes more sense to me, as it's all XML, but I
don't see where you specify *what* files to output the data to.

Is there an example anywhere of a simple (1-variable) form which
(a) writes its data to a new XML file and (b) inserts an element
in an existing file?
