Unable To Pass Input Page Parameter Using PageDef File.

Question

Dear All,
I am currently exploring task flows as I dont have that much knowledge in it.
Here's my use case
1. I setup a taskflow which has a Method Call and a View Activity in it.
2. The method call is a default activity which just calls a web service.
3. After execution, I just wanted to display the result of the method.
I used input page parameters to pass data between the method call and the view activity.
     (I passed the data by accessing the pagedef file directly. I know I can do it using pageflowscope..but this is
     my self exercise so that I could understand ADF fully );)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?>
<adfc-config xmlns="http://xmlns.oracle.com/adf/controller" version="1.2">
  <task-flow-definition id="ManageEmployeeTaskflow">
    <view id="viewEmployee">
      <page>/viewEmployee.jsff</page>
      <input-page-parameter>
        <from-value>#{data.com_test_ManageEmpFlow_methodPageDef.empInfoIterator.currentRow.dataProvider.name}</from-value>
        <to-value>#{data.com_test_viewEmployeePageDef.name.inputValue}</to-value>
      </input-page-parameter>
    </view>
    <method-call id="EmployeeSetup">
      <method>#{bindings.EmployeeSetup.execute}</method>
      <outcome id="__12">
        <fixed-outcome>viewEmployee</fixed-outcome>
      </outcome>
    </method-call>
    <use-page-fragments/>
  </task-flow-definition>
</adfc-config>Problem is, when I display the data. Nothing is being displayed.
<af:inputText value="#{bindings.name.inputValue}"
                  label="#{'Name'}"/>          I debug the taskflow and the <from-value> really has a value, but I am not sure why it cant be passed to next pagedef.
Any idea please?

Hi,
I've been thinking... Is this way of passing parameters not possible?
      <input-page-parameter>
        <from-value>#{data.com_test_ManageEmpFlow_methodPageDef.empInfoIterator.currentRow.dataProvider.name}</from-value>
        <to-value>#{data.com_test_viewEmployeePageDef.name.inputValue}</to-value>
      </input-page-parameter>Thanks.
