Thanks for the reply.
My page has a form like {{{html}}}<form></form>{{{/html}}} if you look at the
wiki code. I'll call this the "embedded form." So when the page is viewed,
then the embedded form is available. An aside, the embedded form creates
sub-pages. The page also has an object and I'm fine with editing those
properties in the inline form editor. And, of course the embedded form on my
page is not displayed because the inline editor only shows and edits the
object. My trouble comes here, when I save that object in the inline editor, I
get the embedded form's hidden post variables evaluated. I did not click my
embedded form's submit, I clicked the inline editor's save. It behaves as if I
clicked the embedded form's submit just before the inline editor's save.
I know it sounds crazy. I'll try to isolate it to a minimal test case.
