It gets even more peculiar. If I print the table keys and values the key==userdata evaluates to true but accessing the table with each of them gives different results i.e. data[key] ~= data[userdata]. I have attached the updated script.

Hi,
I am using the element handle of a multiline text control as a key in a table (data). But when the table is accessed in the map_cb function (called when the control is mapped) the value for that key is somehow lost!

I have the test case in the attached script. The print statements show that the right key is passed to the map_cb function but the table shows a nil value at that time.
What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Milind
