You could try saving the form as source files and in the view file, adding a class to the elements you need to grab via JS to work around this - but I don&amp;#39;t have an answer to your question, I&amp;#39;m afraid.....</description></item><item><title>InfoPath Form field Element ID's Keep Changing</title><link>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/125188.aspx</link><pubDate>Wed, 30 Nov 2022 13:34:36 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">033a2e2d-04e2-4a9d-be01-a4634161eefd:125188</guid><dc:creator>Ghoztrider</dc:creator><slash:comments>0</slash:comments><comments>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/thread/125188.aspx</comments><wfw:commentRss>https://www.infopathdev.com:443/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=40&amp;PostID=125188</wfw:commentRss><description>Is there any particular reason an elements id would keep changing if no changes have beem made to the form in design view? 

Example:
id=&amp;quot;ctl00_m_g_2cd39c29_ceed_4d60_864b_541d9f025a2b_FormControl0_V1_I1_S13_I3_T1&amp;quot;

changes to:
id=&amp;quot;ctl00_m_g_2cd39c29_ceed_4d60_864b_541d9f025a2b_FormControl0_V1_I1_S13_I2_T1&amp;quot;

Notice the I3 in the id changes to I2. I use JS to grab values from some of my forms and on one particular form it keeps changing back and forth like this for no reason. When I do make upgrades to the form I do expect and accomodate the change, however, when no changes are made I&amp;#39;m kind of baffled.</description></item></channel></rss>
