Re-enter verification

Is there a way to compare two input fields to validate a form entry? That is, two fields that require the same entry to insure there hasn't been a typo. IE: text_entry1: "Enter Registration Number" text_entry2: "Re-enter Registration #".
Thanks for any input.

Hi MJudge ,

It's validate-confirmation - item 13 on the validation tab, see the 'i' tooltip for the syntax.

I'm having a little more trouble with this one. Lots of new things. In addition to the field verification, I'm using captcha for the first time as well as attempting a file upload field. I might have to break it down into seperate forms and get them working individually (try a combined form later when I'm a bit more accomplished). There is a strange warning that came up in the forms management area. It appeared after they did some permissions changing at my server associated with another issue. Have you seen anything like this before - know how to address?
(See attachment)and, as before, thanks for your help!

Hi Mjudge,

Please click the Parameters icon at the right hand end of the toolbar and Disable the daily tip.

This error usually shows up when there is a problem with the internet connection to get the latest tip :-(

Disconnecting tip-of-the-day fixed the issue. Kudos on your ability and attentiveness to the forum. I'm thinking I should buy you a beer one of these days🙂

Continuing problems with the entry verification. I've tried the syntax suggested in the tool tip along with identifying the 2 fields in several different ways as it's identified in the html code. (IE: by "name", "title", "label" and "id")both with and without upper case letters. So far the form happily chugs along allowing two different entries on the two fields. I can't help but think that I'm missing some switch or have something improperly configured elsewhere. Can you see misconfigurations on the screen print below? The field designations there display the fields' "titles" from the html code (which seems to be what the tool tip is telling me) - although I did try it with field "name" also which would be text_2 and text_3.

Hi MJudge,

Pretty much everywhere in ChronoForms you use input names (or field names as it says in the tooltip). It sounds as though you need to try text_2=text_3

Bob

Yes, that got it! Apparently I had pointed to the wrong field name on one or the other when I tried that option. Thanks again!

Hi,

I did not find where to set this option at Chronoforms 4.0 RC3.5.1. Please could you be so kindly to show me where is it?

Thanks,

Hi jcmafra,

Please see this FAQ

Bob

Thanks, worked fine.

Hi jcmafra,

How exactly are you setting it?
