Validation and anti spam not working

Hello,

When I activate the anti spam it is not showing om the page. When I press send it says that the wrong code is used.
When I de-activate I can send the form.

When I use the validation it is not working. It send the form bur no validation has taken place.

Has some one any Idea why?

- The session handler is deactivated, as is adviced in other message,
- Using Joomla 1.5 stable, with Chronoform 2.5_J1.5_RC1a.zip and Chronoforms_Bot_0.5_J1.5.zip

- Site page with form: <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.mentaalsterk.nl.testbyte.nl/index.php/inschrijven">www.mentaalsterk.nl.testbyte.nl/index.php/inschrijven</a><!-- w -->

Used with a simple validation on Naam and Email, see attached file
[file name=Doc1.doc size=179200]http://www.chronoengine.com/components/com_fireboard/uploaded/files/Doc1.doc[/file]

Forgot to mention: I am using a HTML Form code and IE7

Hi Marcel,

To get the anti spam image shown you will need to put the text {imageverification} inside your form HTML code!

to get the validation show you will need to enable it AND add the fields names at the correct text fields!

Is this the case now ?

Cheers,

Max

Hi Marcel,

Just looked at your page and neither the validation code nor the imageverification field are being loaded. As Max says please make sure you have set them both to Yes in the Forms Manager tab and have included the {imageverification} tag in your HTML code.

Bob

Hello Bob and Max,

The anti spam was indeed due to the fact that I didnt inserted the {imageverification} in the formcode, overlooked it in the tooltip, sorry.

However I still dont get the validation working. It is enabled and to test it the only thing I validate is in line 1: required (not blank). I filled in the text Naam .Below you see the formcode.

(Naam is Dutch for Name).

I hope you can figure out what I am doing wrong.

Thanks,
Marcel

Hi Marcel,

The form code looks OK. Have you got validation turned on - set to Yes in the Forms Manager Validation tab?

If Validation is working then I expect to see code like this

<input class="required" type="text" value="" name="name" . . .

in the page source (not in the HTML code in the forms manager). Notice the new 'class' attribute.

Bob

Hello Bob,

I re-checked is and it is YES. I put it again on NO and then YES again. Makes no difference.

Marcel

Hello Bob,

To be sure, perhaps something went wrong with the form inschrijven,I have made a simple new one. See HTML formcode below.
Validation is YES and on line 1 - required (not blank) the text naam

Validation also didnt work on this form.
Perhaps it help in finding the problem.

Regards,
Marcel

<label>Naam
<input type="text" name="naam" id="naam" />

<p>
<label>Verstuur

</p>

The this simple form is here<br><br>Post edited by: GreyHead, at: 2008/02/13 18:02

Exactly, there is a JS conflict, both mootools and prototype libraries are loaded, please set the library to mootools and not prototype!

Cheers,

Max

Thanks Max,

I am a newby, can you tell me where / how to change this.

Regards,
Marcel

I had the same problem at the beginnen. :sick:
But now I created a form that works JUST fine. :woohoo:
Except for the upload.😟

I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong... :huh:

The validation and spam-protection works PERFECT... B)
You Just need to change the your-domain.domain


So go to the FORM CODE TAB

<table border="0" cellspacing="2" cellpadding="0">
  <tr>
    <td align="right" valign="top">Vorname:</td>
    <td width="10"> </td>
    <td valign="top"><input type="text" name="vorname" id="vorname" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="right" valign="top">Name:</td>
    <td width="10"> </td>
    <td valign="top"><input type="text" name="name" id="name" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="right" valign="top">Email:</td>
    <td width="10"> </td>
    <td valign="top"><input type="text" name="email" id="email" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="right" valign="top">Mobile:</td>
    <td width="10"> </td>
    <td valign="top"><input type="text" name="mobile" id="mobile" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="right" valign="top">Festnetz:</td>
    <td> </td>
    <td valign="top"><input type="text" name="festnetz" id="festnetz" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="right" valign="top"> </td>
    <td> </td>
    <td valign="top"> </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="right" valign="top">Mitteilung:</td>
    <td> </td>
    <td valign="top"><textarea name="mitteilung" id="mitteilung" cols="45" rows="5"></textarea></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="right" valign="top"> </td>
    <td> </td>
    <td valign="top"> </td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="right" valign="top">Dateianhang:</td>
    <td width="10"> </td>
    <td valign="top"><input type="file" name="upload" id="upload" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="right" valign="top"> </td>
    <td> </td>
    <td valign="top"> </td>
  </tr>
<tr><td align="right" valign="top">Enter code:</td>
<td> </td>
<td valign="top">
<input name="chrono_verification" type="text" id="chrono_verification" value="">
              <img src="http://www.your-domain.domain/administrator/components/com_chronocontact/chrono_verification.php" align="right"></td>
</tr>
  <tr>
    <td align="right" valign="top"> </td>
    <td> </td>
    <td align="center" valign="top"><input type="submit" name="Abschicken" id="Abschicken" value="Submit" /></td>
  </tr>
</table>

Ok, I was able to add a very simple piece of code to the

chronocontact.html.php on line40

Simply add:

enctype="multipart/form-data"

to the "form-tag" on Line40

Save & Upload...and with the Form I posted earlier...everything
works just FINE...

:cheer: Thanks fpr this great feature...

regards sativa

Hi sativa,

You don't need to hack the code - just enter this in the Form Tag Attachment box on the General Tab.

I suggest that you undo the hack or you may find you have problems with other forms.

Bob

Hello,

I am sorry but it didnt work for me Sativa, thank for your help.

I just wait till someone can tell me how to set the library to mootools and not prototype as Max adviced.

I also read on the forum that an update will come in the next few days that deals with this issue. Is that correct?

Kind regards<br><br>Post edited by: marcelke, at: 2008/02/13 20:02

HI Marcel,

If you are using Joomla 1.0.x then the last couple of releases of ChronoForms have a drop-down on the Validation tab where you can select either prototype or Mootools as the validation library.

This option doesn't yet exist for Joomla 1.5

Bob

Hello Bob,

I am using Joomla 1.5. Are there any alternatives?

hey...thanks...
thats the best thing to do...

kindest regards...

I've "unhacked" and added to the general-code...
super...this tool ist great and a big enrichment...

my compliments :woohoo:

Hi Marcel,

I think that someone here hacked the 2.3.7 Mootools add-in and put it into ChronoForms 1.5 . . . but I also know that Max is hoping to get a new revision of ChronoForms 1.5 out in a few days. So I'd wait for the moment if you can.

Bob

Oke Bob,

I wait..

For info:
it could be hacked, but I think the chance is small. I have two sites, at different providers and work with Joomla only for two weeks and the problem is at both sites.

Thanks you all for yout support so far.

Hi Bob... from today on ... you are my GURU.
Perfect your tool is working just fine.
I "unhacked" as you mentioned and put in the
>> enctype=multipart/form-data <<
at the
>> Form tag attachment:
something like onSubmit() <<
line...

I changed the
>> $mosConfig_fileperms = ''; <<
to
>> $mosConfig_fileperms = '0644'; <<
in the configuration file (don't know if you would recommend this or not)
((please give me your feedback))

I tested the form... recieved the mail & the attachment.
What more could one ask for...

Thanks Bob for your help and I hope it helps everyone else as it did me.

Kindest regards :woohoo:

Hi sativa,

You are welcome, glad you got it all fixed.

Bob

PS The 0644 fix wasn't mine but I do recommend it.
