Chris,
You said that the form is not sending POST data, right? From your snippet,
it looks as though you haven't defined a source (or target) instance for
the data. What do your XForms instances look like? If you're able to
provide a complete example of the form, that would be helpful in
troubleshooting.
Best regards,
Tim
