Hello.

I am attempting to combine ChronoForms with Tabs and Slides by Joomlaworks. http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/style-&-design/tabs-&-slides/1046/details

I have put a lot of time into getting it all CSS'd just right, however now, the form will not submit when using more than 1 slider. It submits without the sliders. Submits with 1 slider, but 2 breaks it. I hate to do this, but I REALLY need some feedback on this. Pretty big client decided they want to launch their site 5 days early and so I am under a lot of pressure here😉 I have sold them on using Joomla which was difficult to do for this HUGE company and I really want to show them what it can do.

Any help would be appreciated. Let me know what code I need to post etc. Thank you in advance everyone.

Hi Chel,

I know that you can so this with the standard Joomla Tabs and Sliders. I haven't tried recently with the Tabs & Slides plugin.

Can you send me a link to the page?

I do remember that it was important to have the submit button outside the tabs in my project. And I recall that there were some problems in validating the hidden fields on the invisible tabs.

Hello!

Thank you for your response. Actually I figured it out. It turned out that the slider was hiding one of the fields that was required. So the not submitting thing was a validation issue because a field was not being filled out. The next thing would be to discover a way that when a required field is left blank, it opened the slide that was required and/or perhaps lists the validation issues under the submit buttons vs. next to the field itself.

Hi Chel,

Opening the slider is a bit sophisticated. You can put the error messages by the submit button though - you cna create a div with an id of CF_LV_ERROR_input_id and it will show up if an error is found for that field.

<div id='CF_LV_ERROR_myfieldid' style='display:none;' >You got that wrong</div>

PS I've written the code from memory, I may have got it wrong, search the forums for the correct version.
