I've downloaded and installed the latest versions of Chronoforms files for Joomla 1.5

I'm using Joomla 1.5.23
Mootools Upgrade is Enabled
Chronoforms License is validated

I am able to click through to any of the hyperlinked menu items (forms manager, forms wizard etc.)
But I can't save a form, or navigate through the tabs. Drag and Drop doesn't work.

I discovered that if I go into global config and turn debug ON, then I can save forms and build them. But when I turn it off, I can't.

I've tried different browsers, but no luck.

If it helps, my site has a number of extensions which use jquery such as GTranslate, and a fair amount of custom php code.

Any advice?

Thanks.

Hi wdemilly,

It has to be a JavaScript conflict of some kind. I don't know why turning DeBug on should make a difference though - in Joomla! 1.6 turning DeBug on changes the loaded version of MooTools (from compressed to uncompressed); maybe something similar is happening here?

By all means email or PM me the site URL and a SuperAdmin login and I'll take a quick look.

Hi wdemilly,

I took a look at the site and MooTools 1.11 is being loaded in both the front and back ends. As far as I can see this is being driven by the Google Ajax Plug-in - see the settings below. I guess that this plug-in is disabled when Debug is on and then the 'correct' MooTools library is loaded.

It's a complex site and you have many script-driven elements. You'll need to work out the best development strategy. If you disable the plug-in then MooTools 1.2.x will be loaded and ChronoForms v4 will work - but there may be other side effects.

if you decide to stay with the plug-in then you should upgrade the MooTools version to 1.12 and then ChronoForms v3.2 should run OK.

PS Looking again at the image I see the plug-in is only enabled for MooTools - so it may be OK to disable it completely.
