dropdown submit & show new form

sendmark 12 Oct, 2012
I have a 2 part form I created, it's working as is but I would like to improve it's 'useability' if I can. The purpose of the form is for an event request for several scout troops in 2 districts (North & South to be simple), each district has it's own team to respond to the request. AS the form is now, a simple form ('intro form') comes up with 2 choices (North or South) once submitted, Form_North or Form_South (the actual 'Request Form') is loaded using the 'Event Switcher [GH]' event with both A & B loading a 'Show Form' event. The 'Like I said, it works fine but the improvements I would like to make are:
1. Could a form 'auto Submit once a drop down has been used without the use of a submit button (at least the button being viable).
2. The 'Show Form' event currently loads the new form but the intro form disappears and the the loaded form now has 2 'Powered by ChronoForm' stamps at the bottom. (not that I mind the brand at the bottom but it shows something is carried over from the intro form). Can I just have the request form appear under the intro form?

Hi sendmark,

The answer is a slightly qualified Yes.

You can certainly have a form submit when a drop-down selection is made. A little JavaScript will do this.

You can also have a form hidden and display it when the selection is made. The qualification is that it's a bit tricky to manage the validation when that is done - so it's easier to use the two-step form.

I think that if you set the Show Form action Action option to Load Form then you will get rid of the extra strap lines and related problems.
