Date Picker/ Required fields not working

swant 03 Jun, 2010
I am running joomla 1.5.17 and chrono forms 3.1 rc5.

i built forms and everything work perfectly yesterday.

I cam in today, and tested my form and the date picker does not show up and it does not error out on required fields if they are not filled in. There were no changes made. the form was built in the form wizard. Load Chronoforms CSS/JS Files is set to yes. Date Fields names is set to date_8 which is correct.

I used the component to publish to a shortcut originally i tested with module and has same issue. also it does it on firefox and ie on different machines.

Any suggestions would be great.

Hi swant,

It sounds as though there is a JavaScript conflict on the page.

Can you post a link to the form please.

Bob,

its an internal website, is there anything else i can post that will help?

also where i am posting the form it is basically a blank page other than the joomla menu on the side

Hi swant,

Check the page with a decent debugger - FireBug in FireFox or the Chrome console and see if there are any error messages or missing scripts.

Hi swant,

The first check would be to open Firebug from the the icon at the bottom left of your browser, then relaod the page and see if any errors show up in the Console tab. (See 'I Break for Errors' here).

Hi kardana,

On the Form General tab try setting "Load ChronoForms JS/CSS Files" to "Yes"

Hi kardana,

Ok - but the files aren't loading. Try turning off the CssJsCompress extension and see if that is causing the problem.
