Andy,
I don't have an answer but what I would try first is examining those
values on the client.
First do a view source on your generated HTML and make sure your values
are there.
Next in your Javascript after you've set any values but before you
submit your form (which should be last anyway) use an "alert" command
(Example: alert("my value = " + form.field.value); ).
Hope this helps.
