Required fields and radiobuttons 7 Months, 2 Weeks ago Karma: 0  
I am trying to make a form with radiobuttons. People can make a choise out of 6 buttons. When I make the radiobutton required it do not work, because just one button is selected. Now it says that this field is required because the other five are not filled in.

The radiobutton list is build like this:

<input type="radio" name="Gewenst_voertuig" value="klasseA" checked>
<font face="Arial, Helvetica" size="2">klasse A - Bestelauto</font>

every name is the same and the values are different.

Any suggestion would help me out.

Thank you

Hi pim2000,

There's a note on Anrew Tetlaw's site that says
QUOTE:
*To use the validate-one-required validator you must first add the class name to only one checkbox/radio button in the group (last one is probably best) and then place all the input elements within a parent element, for example a div element. That way the library can find all the checkboxes/radio buttons to check and place the validation advice element at the bottom of the parent element to make it appear after the group of checkboxes/radio buttons.
I think this will help.

Bob

I am a bit further now. Thanks for the quick advise, but it still gives problems.
I only gave the last one a name:

name="Gewenst_voertuig"
and put the whole radiolist in a div

but it still goes wrong


Do you have any suggestion?

Hi pim 2000,

I think that says class name, not field name. Please try with class="button_group" or something like that.

OK,

i've a input type, name and value. When I do understand you they have to be filled in for each item. The class must have a name.

I've made a div with the name ' voertuig'

So when I understand you right. Do I have to fill in voertuig in the field 'validate-one-required'

Because I don't find a class?

Hi pim2000,

Here's a snippet of the demo code from Andrew Tetlaw's site. I don't know exactly how this works with ChronoForms
Code:
<div class="field-label"><label for="field6">Sex</label>:</div> <div class="field-label"> <input type="radio" name="field6" id="field6-male" value="Male" />Male<br /> <input type="radio" name="field6" id="field6-female" value="Female" class="validate-one-required" />Female </div>

ChronoForms License

equalheightTo be able to continue working at this component we decided to get a small profit out of it but at the same time don't force everybody to pay in order to use this great component.

 

 From version 1.5 and up a link at the bottom of everyform created will be placed, saying "joomla professional work", the link will be to us here htttp://www.chronoengine.com, its illegal to remove this link from the source code unless you have a license,

so the license is very simply for the same ChronoForms component without a link, thats all!

This License is for 5 different websites ONLY. 

 

 However, in order to allow everybody to still use the component and even get out of this, the link is inside a div with class : chronoform , use this to hide the link by using different colors or whatever if you really can't pay, but of course the link is still exists at your page source.

 

The license is ONLY 25$ can be bought here :

 

Thank you!
