Multi Page Drop Down Problem

jwill 06 May, 2010
First, I want to say thanks for ChronForm. It does everything I want it to and I can tell you have put a lot of thought into how it should work.

I do have one small (but irritating) problem. I am using a multi-page form with 8 pages. I have "pages step" turned on. When I go back through the pages, all of the text box and radio button data is refreshed. Additionally, all of the drop down box data is refreshed except for the one drop down that is required (it asks for a selection.) The other information on the same page is refreshed.

Any ideas or suggestions.

Hi Jim,

No immediate inspiration :-( Can you post a link to the form page with the drop-down?

You can see the form at <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.riverside.com/newsite">www.riverside.com/newsite</a><!-- w -->. I will we taking the site down over the weekend to move the files to the root directory. Select New Form Module in the Main Menu. On the last page of the form is a button that takes you back to page 1. When you do this and go through all of the pages again, everything is there except for the required drop down (state).

Sorry, I gave you the wrong URL. It should have been <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.riversidesnowbirds.com/newsite">www.riversidesnowbirds.com/newsite</a><!-- w -->.

Hi Jim,

I'm m hazarding a guess that the problem is with the brackets () in the state values. I'd suggest that you set the values to just the two letter code <option value='GA'>Georgia (GA)</option> I don't see anything else that might cause a problem.

It's working now but we may never know what the problem was. I removed the brackets and it still didn't work. I tried changing the Label and Field Name and that didn't help either. I created a new drop down box and copied the data from the first box. The new box worked but the old one didn't. Both drop downs were created with the Form Wizard and I couldn't see any difference in the HTML. Since it's now working, I'm a happy camper again.
