This is the normal behaviour

In my case, I have the form builder on a page within a form. On submitting the form, it uses the getData() function to assign the form builder data to a hidden field.

I guess I could try and move the form builder outside the form but seems like this could be the common path users might take.

Maybe it just needs to be documented? Any thoughts @kevinchappell

I could see where this is a bug as formbuilder is sometimes used inside a form submitted the normal submit way. I found a solution but probably can't get to it until Monday.
