Hi there
We sell magazine subscriptions and use a RocketTheme template. It has a nice Featuretable function we want to use (RokTabs and featuretable mixed) and so far it looks good. But now I run into my limitations using the Chronoforms plugin and the PayPal API.
I have loads of questions but I think it is best you take a look at our site first and then you will quickly see what we will need to do (but can not without help right now):

Please focus on the three options "Custom", "Five for Twentyfive" and "Ten for 45". The template still contain lots of demo materials - disregard these - we will remove them when we know the solution we are going for will work.
I can set up forms and publish them in the articles that show up in this roktab module. I can make the "Buy" buttons call a certain roktab module which has the appropriate form for that choice and I have one single checkout page as the last roktab.
The customer would choose one of the three main offers, be taken to that roktab page and the form(s) displayed there, make their choices and click the "Checkout" button - be taken to the Checkout tab with the checkout forms.
The questions I have are the following:
1. Can we do this using a series of forms and just one checkout form? A far as I can see, it looks possible. We have set up five forms so far and hope they will work together even if they are on different "pages" or roktabs.
2. We would like the dropdown choices to be mandatory - how will that work if one only use one of several forms (only choose one of the three options). We don't want the validation to force people to go to another offer and have to choose subscriptions also there! So how do we limit validation to only the offer the customer actually fills in?
3. How do we display the final purchase amount in the Checkout area and how do we provide feedback that the purchase is made when the submit button is pressed? Can we set up a popup with the confirmation? I will set up an email confirmation of course but we will need immediate response when pressing that submit button.
4. For our Custom chopping area, or tab, we would like a popup window with checkboxes for the over 500 different subscriptions possible to purchase there. Each subscription will have its own price and is not part of a multiple deal like the five for twentyfive or ten for fortyfive. How do we best set that up? Dropdowns can work but it is limiting as people might want to buy more than 20 subscriptions and then we would have to have over twenty dropdowns - better then with checkboxes in a big checkbox area (preferably in a pop up). Does Chonoforms have the capacity?
Please have a look at our site and think about what we want to have and our ideas. Please give suggestions, tips and help with solutions so that we can utilize your excellent plugin.
