validate confirmation red > green > red

hi, i have those 2 fields:

<div class="form_item">
  <div class="form_element cf_password">
    <label class="cf_label" style="width: 150px;">Password</label>
    <input class="cf_inputbox required" maxlength="150" size="30" title="" id="text_5" name="pass" type="password" />
    
  </div>
  <div class="cfclear"> </div>
</div>

<div class="form_item">
  <div class="form_element cf_password">
    <label class="cf_label" style="width: 150px;">Verifica Password</label>
    <input class="cf_inputbox " maxlength="150" size="30" title="" id="text_3" name="pass2" type="password" />
    
  </div>
  <div class="cfclear"> </div>
</div>

in the validation tab i set pass=pass2, and everything should be ok, but i noticed that when i wrote a wrong password, it immediately turns red and the DIV error appears, but when i change field, and the confirmation's field loses focus, the field turns green and the DIV error disappears, looking like all it's ok, while the passwords are not matched.

And when i submit the form, the field border turns red and the DIV error is showing again, as expected.

Is this a known bug or is just in my form the fact that when the second password field loses focus it looks like validated?

Hi code.omnigraf,

Not heard that mentioned before. I can see that it is happening but I'm not sure why. I had a quick dig into the LiveValidation code and it looks as though the pass2 field is being validated twice, once as invalid and then immediately as Valid.

A bit odd. I'm really not sure if there is anything practical to do about it without a lot of bug-hunting in the JavaScript.

Hi bob, so that's a chronoform bug and not related to my site?

as a quick fix without lots of bug hunting in JS u could deny any other validation within 1 sec from the first one only on the validation-confirm fields with a timer

i havent watched how is done the livevalidation code yet, but is what i said possible?

Hi code.omnigraf ,

Looks like it may be a LiveValidation bug.

I'm afraid that I've no idea if you can delay it like that. I tried the "Waiting time" setting in the Validation tab and that didn't seem to help. You might find something on the LiveValidation site.

livevalidation doesnt have a support forum or anything :?

Hi code.omnigraf,

There's a contact form for Alec Hill there - might be worth a try.
