Validation not working with IE

picht 09 Mar, 2012
Hi

I have a form, where almost all the fields are required and some have additional validation.
It works great in Chrome, but when using IE (both 8 and 9) the validation is disregarded and the form is sent even if all fields are empty...

Using Joomla 2.5.2 and Chronoform 4.0 RC3.2

Hi picht,

Please post a link to the form so I can take a quick look.

Hi picht,

There is a JavaScript error showing up from the PIE library; you also have jQuery on the page which can cause problems for other libraries. I suggest that you try turning these modules off and see which one clears the error with the validation.

Hi

I have done some more investigation and the problems seems only to appear if you use the plugin to show a chronoform.

I did a clean install of joomla and installed the chronoforms and chronoforms plugin and the error is there as well, so it doesn't seem to be a 3rd party component.

Hi Picht,

What error are you now seeing?

The same as before. No validation at all using IE8.

Any findings on this subject ? 😀

Hi picht,

Nothing very useful. If I remember correctly from when I looked it works with IE7 but not with IE8 or IE9. There is some problem with the JavaScript on the site but I can't work out what it is :-(

Is it only on my site, or can you reproduce it on other sites as well ?

Hi,

There are few <p> tags around the form, maybe those are affecting it ? I can remember that this was the problem with another IE validation issue here.

Did you try ChronoMyAdmin for managing your Joomla database tables ?

Thank you Max,

I had the same problem; removing the <p> tags (replacing it by <div>'s), seems to solve the issue.
