With the functionality you describe do you mean autofill? So you fill one
field and the others with the same name are automatically filled with the
same content?

I just tried a pdf of mine and it is working fine in chrome. I can now only
think that chrome has a problem with a certain characteristics of your
fields and then doesn't display anything at all. This could be anything but
we would need to know more about your PDF.

- what fields are we talking about here? Textfields?
- do you group them in a hierarchy? So the name full name is
SomeNameParent.Kid.one?

If you have the adobe acrobat at hand, try to create a textfield with a
simple name and copy it. Then open that in chrome and see that it is
working fine. Then compare the differnce between those fields...
