Digging a bit deeper, I find that upon first submit of the form (and only
choosing Life1 as clicking the radio button causes a submit action) then
going back in the browser, the data is retained.
If I even update any other field on the page then do another submit, this
data is not retained - why is it then that only the initial submit data is
"saved"?
Should also put the simplified "stripped down" flow in as well:
~
~
var form = new Form("forms/start_def.xml");
var form2 = new Form("forms/clientdetails_def.xml");
var form3 = new Form("forms/policydetails_sib_def.xml");
form.showForm("start-display-pipeline");
//causing me problems at the moment
form2.showForm("clientdetails-display-pipeline");
form3.showForm("policydetails_sib-display-pipeline");
