If you'd like the submission to run when users change the value in the name
field and leave the field to go to another field (e.g. tabbing out of the field), then you can write:
<xf:input bind="name-bind" id="name">
<xf:label>Your name</xf:label>
<xf:send ev:event="xforms-value-changed" submission="my-submission"/>
</xf:input>
You can also add DOMActivate
in addition to xforms-value-changed
(the value of ev:event
can be a space separated list of events), if you want the submission to also run if users press enter after typing a value in the field.
