I am having an issue with a long safecracker form.

The form requires several fields that collect the same information for multiple people.

For example, there are fields like first name, last name, age, etc and those are duplicated for up to 4 people.

I have created separate channel fields for each and appended an underscore and a number to the field's short name (i.e. first\_name, first\_name\_2, first\_name\_3, etc).

The problem I am running into is that the fields seem to be conflicting with each other even though they are named something totally different.

It causes all of the fields that appear first in the form (i.e. first\_name) to not render and the page just displays the EE field tags.

It seems to only effect select drop down, radio button and checkbox fields.

I am not using the custom\_fields loop, but am using options:my\_field\_name for each field.

Any thoughts on why this might be happening?

Thanks for any help.

Here is the code. I have cut it down quite a but, but sorry for the length. The section that starts with the header Driver 2 shows the duplicate fields. I have stripped out the Driver 3 & Driver 4 sections to shorten the code length, but when those are added in, it compounds the issue.

Everything in the Primary Driver Info section works fine, until the Additional Driver sections are added in.
