Error messaging for Joomla plugin

ajshepherd 05 Jan, 2011
We're evaluating using chronoforms for the 'create an account' part of our website.

Now, if you enter a user name or email address that's already in the Joomla database, varying things happen.

If you're using Chrome, Opera, Safari or Internet Explorer, you get taken to a new page containing an error message (ie "This username/password already in use. Please try another."), and the form so you can try again.

If you're using Firefox, it just dumps you back at the first form page without any error messages at all or any indication that anything has actually gone wrong!

Has anyone else experienced this issue, and is there a solution to error messages in firefox?

Hi ajshepherd,

I use FireFox pretty much all the time; have developed a few Registration applications with ChronoForms and have never experienced that problem :-(

Are you using Joomla! Messages and Joomla! Message display in the Plug-in?
