Geoff Callender commented on TAPESTRY-1972:
-------------------------------------------

Further testing found that when clientValidation="false" then the symptoms will 
also occur when a validator in the template returns an error.

> Client persistence bug - user typing lost

>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/TAPESTRY-1972
>             Project: Tapestry
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: tapestry-core
>    Affects Versions: 5.0.6
>         Environment: Safari, OS X, JBoss 4.2.1
>            Reporter: Geoff Callender

> The user loses the changes they typed into an "input" or "edit" page if an 
> error is recorded by onSuccess() AND the page is dealing with a client 
> persisted object.  The page is redisplayed OK, with error, but with the 
> previous values!!!
> The user's changes aren't lost if 
> (a) I move the work that finds the error from onSuccess() into onValidate() - 
> this fixes all TextField components but does not fix Select, DateField, 
> checkbox, or expansions; or
> (b) I add a simple client-persisted field to the page - remarkably this 
> fixes; or
> (c) I replace client persistence with session persistence.
> To illustrate the problem, it's just like the example from 
> http://tapestry.apache.org/tapestry5/tapestry-core/guide/validation.html, 
> which contains these excerpts:
>     @Persist
>     private String _userName;
>     private String _password;
>     String onSuccess()
>     {
>         if (!_authenticator.isValid(_userName, _password))
>         {
>             _form.recordError(_passwordField, "Invalid user name or 
> password.");
>             return null;
>         }
>         return "PostLogin";
>     }
> except that instead of a single field, _userName, I am persisting a whole 
> object, _user:
>       @Persist("client")
>       private User _user;
> and in the template we refer to its fields, eg:
>               <input t:type="TextField" t:id="firstName" 
> value="user.firstName" ...
> If the user types a value into firstName, but the onSuccess() method records 
> an error, then the user loses what they typed.  
> However, if I add another field to the page then everything works!
>                       @Persist("client")
>       private String _aField;
>               <input t:type="TextField" t:id="aField" value="aField" ...
> Alternatively, it works if I do either of the other 2 things - use session 
> persistence or move all logic into onValidate().
