I am still not sure why it is not possible to use an indicator in this
case. Are you sure you cannot accomplish what you want with an indicator,
which can also be displayed in a custom form?

I did not see the javascript, but are you sure you are posting the value
back to the server? This might explain why they are not being saved.

Regards,
Jason
