I have been spending a lot of time trying to figure out how to debug
my similar issue.
I have a form. I have a hidden piece of code:
<div id="inner_content" style="display:none;">
<div style="background:#669966;color:#ffffff;padding:5px;">
<h3>Note</h3>
<p><webobject name = "note"/></p>
<p><br /><div class="yellow-right" id="saveNote"><webobject
name="NoteSubmit">Save Changes</webobject></div></p>
</div>
</div>
There's just not enough information to go on here. My original point
was mainly that I have a test case that demonstrates that, at least in
FireFox and Safari 3, display:none does not appear to have any impact
on the construction of the post parameters for a form, so I _believe_
display:none's a red herring if you're having a problem.
If your "note" is being set to null, it seems to me there are 2
possibilities:
1) the form value isn't being sent from the browser (which you can
tell by printing out the form values in your action method)
2) you're changing your page structure in takeValuesFromRequest
I suspect what we're not seeing in your example that this div is
surrounded by a conditional somewhere on the page whose value is
changing, which is causing the text field to appear and take a null
value, but I can't say for sure. In case #1, if the value from the
notes field is in the request form values, then you know display:none
had nothing to do with it, so you can stop looking at that. If it
DOESN'T appear, then it didn't submit from the browser and you should
focus your efforts on the browser side (either the server didn't
generate the field, or there's something else funky going on).
