CSS and Validation required

richardbeatson 19 Apr, 2010
Hi,
I have a form here: http://www.camphanover.org/cms/index.php?option=com_chronocontact&chronoformname=camperapplication

I'm no CSS ninja or validation wizard.

There are 2 problems:

1. There is NO validation on the form so people are hitting 'return' and it is being submitted without vital data.

2. The form is coded as a table and doesn't use CSS.

Solution:

Log into site and reformat form...
Enable server-side validation for the form based on the bold values already on the form.
Format it nicely using CSS rather than tables.
It doesn't have to look AMAZING. It just has to work in the majority of browsers, including Safari for Mac.

Please post here is you have any questions. I can pay through Paypal if that's ok. Let me know how much you would quote for the work. You can start straight away.

Thanks

Richard

Hi Richard,

It looks as though you don't have Validation enabled on the form (the ChronoForms JavaScript & validation files aren't being loaded). Also you are loading JQuery on the page and that will need to be run in NoConflict mode to let the MooTools validation code run correctly.

Hi Bob,

I'm still getting to grips with your excellent component for Joomla so I got some help through a Twitter contact of mine who implemented server side validation.
Much better now and more professional.
Many thanks for your reply.

Regards

Richard
