I have a client that used the same term in the “Name” for an assortment of different fields on a form. As a result he was getting duplicate data.

I went in and change the “Name” fields so that they are all unique and now the form is coming back empty. Are the “Name” fields stored in the database and not getting flushed out properly or am I missing something entirely?

He had about 5 fields with the same name:

name=”Yada”
name=”Yada”
name=”Yada”
name=”Yada”
name=”Yada”

I simply appended a number to the Names to make them unique:

name=”Yada1″
name=”Yada2″
name=”Yada3″
name=”Yada4″
name=”Yada5″

And the forms will come back empty.

So in short, the fields with the “name=”Yada” at least return something but it’s all duplicated content. When I change it to “name=”Yada1” noting is returned.

Any idea what the issue may be?

Thanks
