  • If you are trying to modify preloaded data (i.e. references in as `` with a `src` attribute, that's not possible. External instances are readonly. So you'd have to have some mechanism where your primary instance (submission) updates the external data file on the server. – Martijn van de Rijdt Dec 16 '17 at 18:25

It is very hard to edit data in xml. Best way to edit data is, once you export data on the server or in CSV file then with the help of statical tools like Excel, R, Python, SPSS, Stata etc. you can edit the data. This is the best way to editing data and this calls Data Cleaning.
