Is This A Feature Request?

No, it's a bug

What Version Of Caldera Forms, WordPress and PHP Are You Using?

WordPress Version: 4.9.8PHP Version: 7.1.19-nmm1MySQL Version: 5.7.21Caldera Forms Version: 1.7.2WP_DEBUG: 1

Does Your Issue Persist When You Disable All Other Plugins and Switch To The Default Theme?

I can replay the behaviour in all Caldera Form Examples - see https://calderaforms.com/examples/

What Is The Unexpected Behaviour?

Scenario (Firefox):

1. User fills out the form, but doesn't submit (see Screen 1)
2. User hit Browser "Reload" function on any form page
3. Form shows the entered values again!!! (only in not calculated fields)
4. Submit is now possible, but email-fields are empty. No values are transmitted. Summary-element showed empty values too (Screen 2). And all fields with magic slugs (%) doesn't shown the input values.

So, with this behaviour user can send the form with empty values and required fields are ignored.

Screen 1 (Filled out before reloading)

Screen 2 (After F5 reloading)

What JavaScript Errors Have You Seen While Reproducing This Bug?

Nothing

It seems to be this Firefox bug: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/24556165/how-to-clear-form-data-on-refresh-of-age-in-firefox

I've cleared now the form with own JS when page is loading. (inserted in certain page in Wordpress with Caldera Form - i've use the plugin AddFunc Head & Footer Code) It works:

for(var i=0; i<document.forms.length; ++i) document.forms[i].reset();

The workarround to set autocomplete to "off" at form- or input-element didn't help: setAttribute("autocomplete", "off");
