Validation problem

Hi,
I realy like your chronoforms! Everything is working fine... except the validation-part.
I checked the forum and made sure there isn't any space in the names. Still doesn't validate.
Could you have a look at my form?
Tanks!

Hi Thomas,

Because of the way that the validation works you cannot have 'class' attributes in the 'input' tags. If you do, then CF adds a second class attribute and everything gets confused.

You can work around this by putting the css class attributes in wrapping tags; or, IIRC, someone posted a code hack here recently that will work provided that you have the 'name' and 'class' attributes as the first two.

I'm also not sure that 'required' works with select boxes, you may need 'select one required' instead.

Get the validation working with a couple of simple input tags, then add the others.

Thanks for your quick answer! I'll try to simplify the code, without classes.
Thanks for this great component!

Hi all. I tried everything with this code. but validation does not works:

<script src="test_radio_files/mootools.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="test_radio_files/mooValid.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
              
<form name="ChronoContact_kettel1" id="ChronoContact_kettel1" method="post" action="http://localhost/test/ru/index.php?option=com_chronocontact&task=send&chronoformname=kettel1" >
<input type="text" name="myin" class="required">
 <div>sex: M <input type="radio" name="sex" value="m" class="validate-one-required"> - F <input type="radio" name="sex" value="f" class="validate-one-required"></div>
<input type="submit" value="go" />
</form>
          <script type="text/javascript">
        function formCallback(result, form) {
          window.status = "valiation callback for form '" + form.id + "': result = " + result;
        }
        var valid = new Validation('ChronoContact_kettel1', {immediate : true, onFormValidate : formCallback});
      </script>

How to use "validate-one-required" (moovalidate, with prototype all ok) ??
Could you give a little example where this feature works?

To thomaskremer. I have some code that can help u. this code inserts validation-classes into tags where class attribute were specified (look my more ealier posts).

i have solved this problem with moovalidate(one-reuquired).
Just replace the code with this:

	['validate-one-required', ''Please select one of the above options.', function (v,elm) {
				var p = elm.parentNode;
				var options = p.getElementsByTagName('INPUT');
				b = false;
				($A(options)).each(function(elm) {
					if (elm.checked==true) {
					    b = true;
					}
				});
				return b;
			}],

it is not so elegant but it works (i am layman in the moo-library).
