InfoPath Forms Services: Data persistence

F

Fitz

I have found a bug concerning data persistence in an InfoPath 2007 Beta 2TR
browser-enabled form:

Scenario:

Implemented cascading drop-down boxes based on the following blog:
http://blogs.msdn.com/infopath/archive/2006/10/12/cascading-dropdowns-in-browser-forms.aspx
In Drop-down box A: select an item
Drop-down box B: now contains 4 items. Select an item in drop-down box B.
Now box B only contains the selected item. There are no rules, data
validation, or conditional formatting associated with drop-down box B.

Workaround:

Save the selected value in drop-down box B, requery the web service to
refill drop-down box B, set the selected value to the saved value.

Downside:

Multiple postbacks to the server.

Thanks,
Phillip
