Standalone Form saves values different from Embed Form

    I have added some logic to the processing of the form (post-functions.php) based on a few conditions.

    If I view the form in Standalone mode, via the "View Form" option in the Admin Panel, the logic works properly.

    If I view the form "live", via the Javascript option, the logic does NOT work properly.

    At first, I thought the problem was in my added processing logic. Then I looked at the data, I see that the values that get stored are different, depending on which way I enter the data:
    (1) If I use the "live/embedded" form, every value for element_4 gets saved as a 4 - regardless of what I choose.
    (2) If I enter/process the form via the "View Form" option, the proper values (7, 9, 10) get saved.

    I have made 13 test entries now - 7 in Standalone and 6 in Embedded - and the results are consistent across all 13 records.

    When I View Page Source for the form, it shows:

    <li id="li_4"  class="column_2">
    <label class="description" for="element_4">What is your rate of pay? <span id="required_4" class="required">*</span></label>
    <div>
       <select class="element select medium" id="element_4" name="element_4">
          <option value="" selected="selected"></option>
          <option value="4"  >I am salaried</option>
          <option value="5"  >Over $14 per hour</option>
          <option value="6"  >$12 to $14 per hour</option>
          <option value="7"  >$10 to $12 per hour</option>
          <option value="8"  >$8.50 to $10 per hour</option>
          <option value="9"  >Under $8.50 per hour</option>
          <option value="10"  >I am Unemployed</option>
       </select>
    </div>
    </li>

    I am using version 3.1.

    Hmm.. I'll need to check directly into your code for this.
    Can you contact us directly and let us know the following please:

    - the URL to your standalone form
    - the URL to the page where you embed the form
    - the modified "post-functions.php" file
