 * Dear Calculated Fields Form plugin developers,
 * I’ve got a problem calculating two values in two different calculated forms from
   one arbitrary number in the third form.
 * For example, I have three calculated field forms on page (pounds, kilograms and
   grams). I want to put just one value in any form to get this value converted 
   in two others.
 * But when I actually trying to do this, I’ve got an error – calculation goes in
   cycles and it never stops in linked fields.
 * Can you please help me fix this.

 * Hi,
 * You can not insert in the form two calculated fields A and B, where the field
   A depends of field B, but in turn field B depends of field A, because it creates
   an infinite loop.
 * You should find a different solution. For example, you can insert an input field
   and a radio group with three choices: pounds, kilograms and grams, and display
   the calculated fields in function of choice selected.
 * Best regards.
