Description

Home.html:

<span jwcid="@Test" />
<span jwcid="@Test" />

Test.html:

<form jwcid="@Form">
<input jwcid="@TextField" value="" />
</form>

Generated html:

<form method="post" action="/demo/Home,$Test.$Form.sdirect" id="Form">
<div style="display:none;" id="Formhidden"><input type="hidden" name="formids" value="TextField" />
<input type="hidden" name="submitmode" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="submitname" value="" />
</div>
<input type="text" name="TextField" value="" id="TextField" />
</form>

<form method="post" action="/demo/Home,$Test_0.$Form.sdirect" id="Form_0">
<div style="display:none;" id="Form_0hidden"><input type="hidden" name="formids" value="TextField" />
<input type="hidden" name="submitmode" value="" />
<input type="hidden" name="submitname" value="" />
</div>
<input type="text" name="TextField" value="" id="TextField" />
</form>

Please note that the 2 TextFields have the same ID: "TextField".
It's not a problem that they have the same name because it is a form-local identifier as a know, but having the same ID causes problems with client side scripting.
