Possible Bug: Invisible Trailing Quotation Mark in Drop Down Field Entry

This just started happening:

I have just added a number of Drop Down fields to a form that I have been working on for several weeks.

The individual entries in the Drop Down have trailing quotation marks.

For example:

-- Select the "New Option"
-- Select the "Old Option"
-- Select the "Cheap Option"

When I preview or publish the form -- the "end" quotation marks for each entry are visible. But when I am in Gravity Forms Edit Mode -- the "end" quotation marks are not visible.

No matter how many times I enter the trailing "end" quotation mark -- and re-save the form -- the marks do not stick in Edit Mode -- they continually disappear.

Is this a known problem? Obviously this is not life-or-death -- but is there a solution or work-around other than ignoring the problem?

Thanks in advance.

ps. This plugin has probably saved me over $20,000 in development costs that would have otherwise needed to be outsourced. Thanks for a great product.

Thanks very much Alex.

If I may, I have just started experiencing another possible bug -- and, surprisingly, this is happening after many weeks of Gravity Forms behaving flawlessly.

I suddenly cannot successfully add any text to the "Description" section of my "Standard Fields". I have tried adding new text to existing "Standard Fields" -- and to newly created "Standard Fields". And, I have tried a variety of "Standard Fields".

Interestingly enough, I CAN EDIT existing text in the "Description" sections of existing "Standard Fields". However, I am dead-in-the-water with newly created "Standard Fields"

This is actually a very big problem for me. Is this a known bug -- and is there a solution?

Thankss

I'm running GF Version 1.3.12 with WP Version 2.9.2 -- with no recently installed plugins.

One thing I can comment on is that approximately a half hour before this occurred -- GF lost some of its GUI control -- in terms of the "floating" menu. The menu was stuck to the top of the page (like standard HTML) and I had to scroll all the way up to the top in order to access it -- as opposed to it "floating" within whatever position the page was scrolled to.

Right after originally posting this problem -- I walked away to clear my head. And now, right before hitting the "Send Post" button -- with the same form on my screen, no relaunching, no rebooting, no nothing -- I just tried inserted text into a newly created "Standard Field" -- and it worked !?!?

Very strange -- but I'm happy it's working now. Still, it does concern me that the problem will once again return.

1. Does the non-scrolling GUI ring a bell with you?
2. Is that an indication of a problem or "breakage" that has been documented?

FYI: I did not log out of WP at the time of that GUI issue (probably should have).

3. Would that have been the recommended approach for solving the GUI problem -- and maybe GF's inability to accept a "Description" section text entry?

4. Or do you think the two problems are completely unrelated.

Thanks very much for your help.

Thanks Carl.

I'll keep my eye out for a repeat performance -- and let you know if I sense a pattern.

Ok...now I've got a new repeatable problem.

As mentioned in this thread, I've had a variety of problems that may or may not be related. The form I've been working on is quite long and complicated -- and I've invested many hundreds of hours into it. I really can't loose it.

My hope is twofold:

1. That you can tell me what is happening -- is the form corrupt (I really hope not) or is the GV installation corrupt? I have not moved these files to another domain as I do not want to possibly damage another GV installation.

2. That you can advise me on what steps to take (other than redoing the form from scratch) to prevent further editing issues -- and insure rock-solid performance when it is being used by my customers

HOW I GOT HERE
-------------

1. I determined that I needed a Multiple Choice field to replace an existing Checkbox field

2. I added the Multiple Choice field and dragged it to the proper position

3. I copied all the related information from the Checkbox to the Multiple Choice

4. I deleted the Checkbox field and started to change 4 other fields (located directly below) who's visibility was formerly "conditionally" dependent on the Multiple Choice field.

5. The first of those 4 fields is editable -- but the other 3 remain un-editable.

6. The only fields I am aware are having a problem -- are the ones that were conditionally related to the Checkbox field I deleted.

7. I have not tried to recreate the problem -- as it is right there for you to see.

8. I have tested this on three computers (2-XP and 1-Vista64) -- and using the latest versions of three browers (IE, Firefox and Chrome on all three computers).

9. I have repeatedly logged in and out of WordPress -- and rebooted the computers.

10. When using Firefox & Chrome -- I get a "javascript:void(0)" error at the bottom of the browser.

11. When using IE -- I get the following error message:
