    Default REFEDIT - when add an attribute, it disappears once I save!

    Registered forum members do not see this ad.

    Hi Everyone,

    I have a block with many attributes and want to add another attribute.

    So, I REFEDIT the block, create an attribute, add it to the block (and when I do it says it's already part of the working set, which is normal I think), and I save changes.

    The Problem: once I save...it disappears!

    When I try to add a text box, a circle, etc, to the block, no problem, it doesn't disappear.

    Any ideas?

    THanks for your help...

    Check that you are not giving the new attribute tha same tagname as an existing attribute

    You must ATTSYNC after making REFEDIT changes to block attributes.
