Actually this is one of those PITA issues of Everything that I think is probably quite hard to work around. The problem is that forms on PM are idendependent. So when you submit from the CB nodelet its a totally different form from the one that may be displayed in the "node view". I guess hypothetically we could make all pages be just one big form, but then you have all kinds of issues like walking on each others parameters and things like that.

Simpler work arounds might be simply not showing the nodelets when viewing preview/comment on, or possibly putting special logic into the CB (and other form bearing nodelets) so that it wouldnt include a form on those pages.

Anyway, i guess the main reason this hasn't been fixed is that it is in the annoyance category and not the showstopper category, and the work arounds arent too much better than the original problem.

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.


Do you know where your variables are?
