I just created a survey form using chronoforms...my first form. Why, when I publish the form, do I see the blue information icon (which I think I should see) AND the ":: Please pick the one option that best describes your situation" text on the published page, after each question?? Should the tooltip text not display only when I mouse over the information icon?

Question:

Strongly Disagree
Disagree
Neutral
Agree
Strongly Agree
<information icon appears here>
:: Please pick the one option that best describes your situation

My second problem involves the email sent once the form is submitted. I outputs the answers chosen but does so multiple times for each entry. See below for an example:

Survey form as seen by user:
Question 4. My advisor took the time to fully understand my situation before making recommendations for me.

:: Please pick the one option that best describes your situation


Email form output:
Question 4. My advisor took the time to fully understand my situation before making recommendations for me.

Strongly Disagree Disagree

:: Please pick the one option that best describes your situation

I suspect it has o do with the way the email template is set up (default) but I do not know how to alter it to fix this??

Help??

Thanks Doug

Hi Doug,

Hard to diagnose the tooltip problem without seeing the page - from what you've posted it looks as though the :: may be breaking the code, try taking that out and see if it is fixed. If not, please post a link to the form.

The second problem is that the Wizard isn't clever enough to deal with radio button groups correctly. Here's the process to fix it:

Make sure each button in the group has the same name e.g. name='button_group1' (but keep distinct ids e.g. id='button_group1a', . . .)

In the template put Title for Button group 1 : {button_group1}

Hi Doug,

for the tooltips problem, please don't use either " or ' in the tooltip message or try to escape the quotes with a \ and it may work, not sure about the slash suggestion though!

Cheers

Hi Dougj,

You can edit the code in the Form HTML box on the Form Code tab.

The ToolTip Javascript isn't loading. Please set "Load Chronoforms CSS/JS Files?" to Yes on the form General Tab and that should fix that problem.

Thanks for the help. I think I have it figured out now.
