I am experiencing some trouble when I configure a global filter block. The exposed filters from my main view I use as my homepage stop reponded after the first selection. It does work when making the first selection. But any choice after that makes doesn't get picked up by views. I can only resolve this by uninstalling Global Filter module.

The problem comes from the fact that I use css and js to hide the exposed filter and created my own 'fancy' styled unsorted lists. For a working example see 'circles' on whatbirdisthis.org. The selections made in these list are set on the real exposed filters using javascript. To do this the id of the exposed are checked. This is the point at which it goes haywire.

Global filter changes the id of the exposed filters!
It has become "edit-field-fname-value--X" instead of "edit-field-fname-value" where X increments everytime you select a global filter.

Is this intentional?

Hi firfin,
No this is not intentional.
Global Filer should not change the ids of Exposed Filters... and then increment the with every selection.... That's bad.
Are you sure it is not your JS doing this?

Sorry for the slow response. I will try it on a clean install asap.
