Hi Ralph, For the xf: and non-xf: elements, it depends how and where you declare the xforms namespace. With your form you declared the namespace with the prefix xf: on the html tag : xmlns:xf="http://www.w3.org/2002/xforms";, so, as you noticed, you need to use this xf prefix with the xforms elements. Best, Josselin
