Chronoform + Tabs/slides = multipage

laurentmartin 05 Oct, 2011
Hello,
I am trying to use Chronoform with tabs in order to create a fake multipage that allows the customer to fill a form but appearing no as long as if it was only one.

Till now, i succeed to implement to put a form inside tabs but i am facing a problem: the validation with the Submit button.

In deed: I need to use only one Submit button to be able to submit different form included inside every tab in only one database.

In my current situation every single tab got every single form, and of course if the looking looks good i am not able to submit the whole bunch of form by pressing only one button.

Does anybody already succeed to solve this ?

Thanks in advance for your help

Hi laurentmartin,

You can sue tabs to break a single form up across several tabs. Not sure that you can usefully put different forms on each tab.

Hi BOb

How to tab to break a form ?

I think also one of the main problem is the validation.

Any idea how to operate ?

Thanks for your help

Hi laurentmartin,

You can use the Joomla! Tabs and Slises code inside your Form HTML.

Validation is a problem in CFv3 (I'm not sure about CFv4).

Another approach is to emulate tabs with a multipage form where each page looks like a tab but is actually a stand alone form
