Hi,
I want to make use of the <visibility> attribute in the input-forms.xml
but we're running v1.3.2 in production (which doesn't include it out of
the box), so I've upgraded my dev system to 1.4.1 to try it out.
However, whenever I make a "onebox" or "textarea" element only visible
in workflow (using "<visibility>workflow</visibility>") it works to a
point in that the element is hidden on the input form, however, when I
hit the "Next >" button to move on to the next page (away from the page
containing the hidden element), I get an Internal Server Error . . .
The workflow visibility setting works just fine for "name", "twobox",
"date", "dropdown", and "qualdrop_value" elements (elements are hidden
during input and only visible in workflow forms), but as soon as I try
to 'hide' a "onebox" or "textarea", everything disappears in a puff of
blue smoke . . . .
I'm trying this out using the default input-forms.xml in v1.4.1 to make
sure it isn't anything else fancy I've previously added to the form
setup.
Is it just me, or has anyone else seen this? Are others successfully
hiding "onebox" or "textarea" fields on their input forms?
Here is the snippet from the logs just in case this helps . . . .

Any insights etc welcome.
