Hi,

I have discovered some unexpected behaviour in OrbeonFormsPortlet in noscript
mode, while developing an xforms switch/case construction. The behaviour is that
when a field in a case is left empty and one toggles to another case, all form
values disappear altogether and the initial case is shown, i.e. the portlet
seems to be reinitialized.

No warnings or errors appear in orbeon.log.

I've narrowed it down to a simple test case with three stages having each one
input. If values are filled in, all goes well, but if "Next" or "Previous" is
hit at any stage without having entered text, the initial portlet view is shown.

When directly accessing the app (http://localhost:8080/orbeon/portlet-test/) all
goes well.

This is my setup:
- Deployed the latest nightly build war in Jetspeed portal as portlet application
- Changed configuration:
set oxf.xforms.noscript to true
set oxf.epilogue.theme and oxf.epilogue.theme.portlet to oxf:/config/theme-plain.xsl
- Copied portlet-test to resources/apps
- Added standard OrbeonFormsPortlet to my portal page
- Made a link to /portlet-test/ in resources/apps/portlet-welcome/view.xhtml
to navigate from the initial welcome portlet to the test portlet.

Please have a look at this?

Thanks,
Jeroen
