I was trying to use ShareVis.Query and could not understand why it
wasn't working. I have a dropdown list for location and a SharePoint
list that contains data by location. When I made my selection I could
see something running but then my dropdown would flip back to empty
and no data would appear. I had two forms, one testing and one
"real", it would work on my testing form, but not on the "real" form.
Everything looked identical - or so I thought. ARG!

The one difference - which is what breaks it - is renaming the form
data source from "myFields" to something meaningful. I've been bitten
before with grouping fields, because I like things neat and tidy.

So lesson learned; don't rename "myFields" and don't put things in
groups.
