    So, I clear some form data just before populating it with updated values (from a new search). What happens? The form shows the new data, then clears! I have to put a freaking timeout in the javascript because it appears that jqWidgets is updating its controls on a separate thread. The plain vanilla HTML controls clear/update just fine. :mad: That and the fact that it really isn't very mobile device friendly. I get all sorts of weird behaviors on different mobile device browsers. :mad: There's something to be said for plain-ol' HTML with jQuery and not much else. Lesson learned. Marc

        I've also had to reprogram a couple of their controls. But I decided this is far better than designing my own controls. The odd thing is one of the reasons I had to do the re-programming on one control is because it didn't work properly in their own container controls! But I give them credit, because they do have the best documentation I have ever seen.

          That is true. And I get replies on their forums within 24 hours. Marc
