Hi all,

Instead of directing to a thank you page on submit, I was wondering if there is a message that could shown above the form, similar to the mootools validation that is available (the required text fades in if there is not text within a required field).

Great component by the way

Thanks
Lee

hi lw_d,

You can show any html+php+javascript that you like above your form. You just need to find or write the code and add it into the Form HTML box.

If you want to re-show the form after completion then you can use the showForm() function in ChronoForms to redisplay it and use some indicator in your form code to say that the message should be displayed.

Or you could use the Joomla $mainframe->enqueuemessage() function with some javascript/css that willl have it fade after display.

Hi lw_d,

you can also try this at the onsubmit after email :

<?php

$mainframe->redirect("form_link_goes_here", "Thanks we received your submission");

?>

Thanks I will try those, if anyone has already implemented this be sure to let me know.

Thanks
Lee

You will probably have to add this above the redirect line:

global $mainframe;

Thanjk you it worked
Now i want it after it went to the page with the onsubmit code before sending email i want it to go to diplay a thank you message and then go back to home page.
So i have the form page(form html) confiirmation page(onsubmithcode before sending e mail) and now i want to go to a page with a thank you message.

When i put that code it gives me page not found but when i connect back to the form page it gives me the(Thanks we received your submissio) message. Could you please tell me what i'm doing wrong??

hi, create a complete new form with the thank you and use my line of code above, just point to a new form!

Cheers,

Max
