HTTP Filtered Provider Value Set works in test mode, but blank in presentation mode

I setup Apache and serving an xml page. 

<xml>
<node>
<value>Tom 1</value>
</node>
<node>
<value>Tom 2</value>
</node>
<node>
<value>Tom 3</value>
</node>
</xml>

When I run the test everything works,

[HttpFilteredValueSetProvider]Retrieving values from HttpConnector...
[HttpConnector]Retrieving XML document...
[HttpConnector]Issue a new HTTP requestGET /test.xml

</node> 
</xml>

[HttpFilteredValueSetProvider]Retrieved 3 values

I saved the project.  When I tried creating an attribute (small string) and placing it in a presentation, 
no matter what I do, I always get a blank control on the presentation.
Any ideas as to what step I am missing?

 Hello Tom,
I guess you verified that your small string attribute was using your HTTP ValueSet provider.

You may use Firefox and Firebug to load a new work item and search for any error while loading the values.

Let me know.
Thanks
Eric.

 Eric, I tried snooping with Firebug, and I don't see any errors or warnings.  However I don't see the GET that goes and fetches the value set.

 Hello Tom,
I captured a screen cap from https://jazz.net/library/article/1257

If you don't see the GET to your server, then possibly, you did not select your HTTP VSP as provider for your attribute.
May you please check / confirm?

Thanks

 Stupid me, I created the attribute in the wrong category (wrong work item type).  
Its now working.   Thank you very much!
