Description

I have two forms on my page and both have a subcomponent. The subcomponent has a text input with specified tapestry ID.
The output input HTML elements have the same id.

Ids generated fine inside a form but it fails across them.

A minimal source to demonstrate the problem (in the output there are 2 input tags with "text" id):

My "container" template:
<form jwcid="@Form"><div jwcid="@SubComponent"/></form>
<form jwcid="@Form"><div jwcid="@SubComponent"/></form>

The subcomponent template:
<div>
<input jwcid="text@TextField" value="ognl:text"/>
<input jwcid="@Submit" value="Enter" action="listener:doSubmit"/>
</div>

The subcomponent source:
@ComponentClass()
public abstract class SubComponent extends BaseComponent {
public String text;
public void doSubmit()

{System.out.println("text = " + text); }

}
