frustrating: back button not showing in multipage form

jmarian1 31 Mar, 2012
Hi Bob/Max,

I created a code for the back and submit button in multi page and somehow it doesn't show. Here is my code in the first page with the form:
<!--_CHRONOFORMS_PAGE_BREAK_--><div class="ccms_form_element cfdiv_submit" id="submit2_container_div">
<input name="submit2" id="submit2" class="" value="Submit" type="submit" />
 <a href="index.php?option=com_chronoforms&chronoform={chronoform}&cf_sid={cf_sid}"><input type='button' name='back' value='Back' /></a><div id="error-message-submit2"></div></div>


but the buttons doesn't show either in the next page. Any idea? I have joomla 1.7.3. This is making me frustrated. I have another form that uses this back and submit button and it works fine. I get the same code from the working one to the new form and it doesn't work. Why? Please help. Thanks.

Ok, this is really frustrating because the back button is not working again. What I mean by not working is, it doesn't get the cf_id when I click the back button. Yes, the back button shows but it doesn't get the cf_id. Why? I have back button in 3 forms and one form have 3 pages or more. Please help. This somehow works and then not. The error below:

If you notice the URL in the screen shot it is not grabbing the cf_id but instead showing the cf_id text. My code for "back" button
<!--_CHRONOFORMS_PAGE_BREAK_--><div class="ccms_form_element cfdiv_submit" id="submit2_container_div">
<input name="submit2" id="submit2" class="" value="Submit" type="submit" />
 <a href="index.php?option=com_chronoforms&chronoform={chronoform}&cf_sid={cf_sid}"><input type='button' name='back' value='Back' /></a><div id="error-message-submit2"></div></div>
. Thanks.

Hi jmarian1,

Do you have the Curly Replacer turned on in the Show HTML action?

Otherwise you could (a) use a <?php echp . . . ?> to add the value to the URL; or (b) add the value to the User session and re-read on the next page.
