Data erased on Webdirect via Android on Refresh or Panel Switch

Hello,

I am developing an app where users may login with Android or IOS via Webdirect.

On IOS (safari) via Webdirect-- everything is fine.

With Android(chrome)-- anytime the script refreshes the screen or switches panels-- all uncommitted data is lost.

any ideas or workarounds?-- 

my script checks validation and i really need to refresh to trigger conditional formatting

also hoping to have a multi-panel entry so the user does not have to scroll to the bottom (layout has about 100 fields)

thanks!

Have you tried an explicit "commit records" before the refresh?

If you do, what errors are returned from it, and can you grab the Get(RecordOpenState), Get(RecordOpenCount) before and after?
