Error Stacking

ExactInternet 23 May, 2010
Hello,

I came across this extension today and think it is absolutely superb!

I would like to modify the way in which errors are displayed when validating my form. They currently display to the side of the field, I would like them to display at the top in an error "stack" if possible? I have done this using the jQuery validation plugin before, but am unsure of how to tackle it using Chronoforms. With jQuery I created a DIV and the errors were displayed in it if they were encountered.

Any help will be much appreciated, a quick look through the FAQ/Tutorials/Forum search hasn't yielded any answers 🙂

Hi Adam,

On the Validation tab set "Validation Messages type" to "Show my own divs". Then put the error messages in divs with the class "CF_LV_ERROR_field_id" replacing field_id with the id of the field. You can put the divs anywhere on the page you like.

This gets you most of the way there.
