reattach with input display

• reattach with input display will only work for jobs submitted after the new version is installed (old jobs will not have proper input info)

  • fyi - the log file will be input[unique-id-bits]
  • after the input data is recorded, reattachment maps the data to the id's of input fields
  • if you change the module, some data may not be viewable
    • perhaps we should version modules
  • local files can not be restored due to browser security requirements
    • they will become "no file selected", and a warning message with the name of the previously loaded file displays

• new

  • the current state of any module is saved by default during usage
  • i.e. if you make some changes and go to another module and back, it will keep your edits
  • previously, this somewhat worked only after pressing submit
  • this may result in more frequent use of "reset to default values"
  • reloading the page will set all to defaults
    • we could save the save info if we wish
  • local files can not be restored
    • they will become "no file selected", and a warning message with the name of the previously loaded file displays
  • repeaters
  • the repeated data should show up at the proper place
  • integer repeaters under listbox repeaters is now supported
  • the odd spacing of empty space varying on the listbox choice has been eliminated
