Button in repeating section not finding the right attribute?

Having a weird thing where a button in a repeating section can't seem to find certain attributes in the button but I know it can find in other parts of the repeating section.  Here's my button: <button type="roll" name="btn_power-attack" value="&{template:roll} {{name=@{character_name}}} {{trait=@{attack_name}}} {{result=[[1d20cs>@{attack_crit} + @{attack_rank} + @{attack_misc}]]}} {{affliction_type=@{afflictions_type}}} {{affliction_check=@{afflictions_check}}} {{affliction1=@{afflictions_1}}} {{affliction2=@{afflictions_2}}} {{affliction3=@{afflictions_3}}}"><input type="number" name="attr_attack_rank" readonly placeholder="0"></button> The button displays in chat like so: So its missing a bunch of attributes and yet on the sheet, inside the same repeating-section it seems to find the attributes just fine.  <div class="display_afflictions">                 <span class="">Afflictions</span>                 <span class="redlabel" name="attr_afflictions_type"></span>                 <span class="redlabel __dc" name="attr_afflictions_check"></span>                 <div class="afflictions">                   <span class="affliction" name="attr_afflictions_1"></span>                   <span class="affliction" name="attr_afflictions_2"></span>                   <span class="affliction" name="attr_afflictions_3"></span>                 </div> </div> Am I just making a dumb mistake somewhere? 

Try setting a default value for each of them. IIRC this is a problem with attribute-backed-spans inside repeating sections. (If they have a matching input or select somewhere else, make sure the default value is the same for both.)

Yep, GiGs probably has it. Attribute backed spans don't actually exist in a repeating section until they have a value, and they can't auto create a default value. Also, the value property in a span does nothing for them, you need to back them with a hidden version of the attribute that has value property for whatever default value you want.

The values in the spans are actually being put in place by a duplicate of the repeating section. Its how "Dazed" "Confused" and "Unconscious" are being displayed. That part, that lives elsewhere in the sheet, looks like this <div class="edit_afflictions">             <span>Afflictions</span>             <label>Resistance Type <input type="text" list="defense-types" name="attr_afflictions_type"></label>             <label>Resistance Check <input type="number" name="attr_afflictions_check"></label>             <label>First Degree <input type="text" name="attr_afflictions_1"></label>             <label>Second Degree <input type="text" name="attr_afflictions_2"></label>             <label>Third Degree <input type="text" name="attr_afflictions_3"></label> </div> Unless maybe the button wants to be in the same repeating field as the input? As far as I would have guessed, all the attributes of the repeating-sections live in the duplicates. 

Hidden inputs did seem to solve it. Its weird that the spans can pull it from the ether but the roller can't.
