Rails spinoffs - Jul 2008 - Firefox form elements not being updated properly by Ajax.Updater

Visually, Prototype''s Ajax.Updater is working as advertised.

I call a server action that creates a new div that contains a few form
elements.
The page reflects the updated form elements...or at least it appears
correct.
But when I finally submit the form  (form.submit) , all form elements
updated by the Updater, are missing from
the submit.

I have used firebug to verify this, and the post only has form
elements that were untouched during the Ajax updates.

I have reproduced this in both Firefox 3 and 2.  IE does not seem to
exhibit this problem.

I am able to pick the values off of each element
using document.getElementId and then I can manually append them onto
the
form''s action:
e.g.
-------------
myForm.action="myurl"+"&var1="+var1;
myForm.submit();
-------------

... but this is obviously not best.   Is this a bug?


Thanks,

Hi,

We''ve started transitioning to a new, better-named, hopefully-spam-
free group for Prototype and script.aculo.us:

   http://groups.google.com/group/prototype-scriptaculous/

   prototype-scriptaculous-/JYPxA39Uh5TLH3MbocFFw@public.gmane.org

Could you please post your question there instead?  Thanks!  People
might still answer here, but probably not for all that much longer...
