Hello!

I would like to make conditional forms

For instance, I would have a drop down group with values 1, 2, and 3.

If the customer selects 1, the form fields for product one would appear. Same for 2 and 3.

If the customer selects none and hits submit, the form would only send the contact information.

Is ChronoForms capable of handling this? What would you consider the best approach?

I google this topic (but its form 2009) http://www.chronoengine.com/forums/posts/f5/t13829/can-chronoforms-create-conditional-forms.html?page=1

Is there some new thing in V5 to do this...(can i do this automatic clicking or may be i can paste some code)

Thanks!

p.s. great component

Hi sirdna,

Yes you can do this with CFv5. There are several threads here in the forums about it.

Basically you can use the Events tab in the Drop Down to hide or show other form elements depending on the selection. If you add each product's inputs to a container, then you can show/hide the appropriate container.

This can get a bit complicated. It might be simpler to use a two step form where the customer selects a product in the first step, then is shown the appropriate inputs for that product in the second step.
