Validation not working in Firefox (works in IE however?!?)

philstan 17 Jul, 2009
I have created a form in Chronoform RC5.3 in Joomla 1.5.11.

The validations on this form work just fine in IE7 however they do NOT work in Firefox or Safari (go figure...?!). I'm pulling my hair out, any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have tried to disengage any other JS file which maybe conflicting however, no luck yet.

Here is the direct link to the form:

http://new-mylife.fridayharbourtesting.com/index.php?option=com_chronocontact&chronoformname=My_Life_Survey

and here is the necessary ui/pw for the site:

ui = Guest
pw = guest


Thank you, thank you, thank you...Philstan

Hi philstan,

The Option[0] entries are like
<option selected="selected">Select one...</option>
I think that some browsers are interpreting this as meaning that this value is 'selected' and so the validation passes.

Try
<option value="">Select one...</option>
instead - that seems to work in FireFox at least.

SOLVED!!

Thank you. Sir, you are a genius. :-)

It's odd that IE actually interprets this correctly. Might be the only thing it does right!

Thanks again, Philstan
