Losing Data Bindings in Popups

Question

Hello,
I recently upgraded from JDeveloper 11.1.1.2.0 to 11.1.1.3.0. The application I'm working on allows for the creation and editing of various entities (students, applications, etc..) which is primarily accomplished via pop-ups. I had noticed this issue once or twice pre-upgrade, but now it seems much more widespread: when editing an entry, the data is pulled from bindings, but sometimes it seems those bindings are lost (or the values are null). Like, a check box in the pop-up will display "yes/true" but still be unchecked... or a select-one drop-down menu will be empty, even if a summary table (located on the main page, not the pop-up) is displaying the correct data for that attribute.
This happens primarily with selectOneChoice and selectBooleanCheckbox components. The loss of binding occurs most frequently when editing the entry to bring up the pop-up, and canceling out of the pop-up... then if the edit pop-up is opened again again, the data's gone. But, sometimes it's missing on the first edit (and in some cases just selecting a different row in the table displaying these objects will be enough to lose a binding!).
The editable objects are always displayed in a table in a main page, with an independent navigation page framing the data page. Whenever this loss of binding occurs, the ability to navigate via the frame is lost... until an object is edited and saved properly.
Has anyone seen any behavior like this before, losing bindings in pop-up checkboxes and selectOnes? If anyone has an idea what could be causing it, I'd appreciate it!
Thanks

This is a JDeveloper 11.1.1.3 release bug :_|
Check for a workaround here: http://adfbugs.blogspot.com/2010/05/choise-list-in-popup-turn-to-null-after.html. Basically you need to add partialSubmit=true to your close button and close the popup programmatically in an actionListener.
