First, apologies; I'm a newb to javascript, and have just joined the list.

My problem is this: I have defined a function which allows one to edit the
fields of a form, as in change the number, names and labels of the text
inputs.  It brings up a div using blockUI, and when you click OK, it takes
the nice new labels you've given it, and repopulates the form with them.
The problem is, it only does this sometimes; sometimes it removes all inputs
and labels from the form.

The relevant code is something like this:

$(obj).children('.levels').children('input, br, label').remove();
$('#new-levels-form').children('input').each(function(i){
    var name = $(this).val();
    if (name) {
        $(obj).children('.levels').append(
'<label for="'+name
+'">'+name
+': </label><input class="health-level" type="text" maxlength="1"
name="'+name
+'" size="1" readonly />'
        );
    }
});


obj is the specific form on the page that I want to update, .levels is a div
within it that contains the labels and inputs.if there's any more
information I can provide, I'd be happy to.

So, in summary, sometimes the old inputs and labels are removed, then the
new ones added, sometimes they're removed, and nothing's added -- or,
perhaps, they new ones are added, and then they're all removed.  I don't
know quite how to tell.

Thanks,

--Kit
