ie 9 submit button does not work

xbatx 27 Mar, 2013
Hello,

I looked around and tried to disable the mootools and updated it but it did nothing. I can't seem to figure out what the problem is.

Hi xbatx ,

Not a lot to go on here but at a guess you are using the ChronoForms plug-in to put the form in an article and there are <p> tags around the form. That would stop it working.

Sorry I forgot to post some items. How do you tell if the<p> is there or not? I tried to view it in source code but didn't show.. .Where do I go to edit it exactly somewhere in the theme? Its the Rocket theme. tr_camber

Thanks

Hi xbatx,

You look at the Page Source code.

If it is there it's probably added by the article content editor.

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

I did look at the view source code I thought maybe it was something else.. here is the code.

Hi xbatx,

That looks good to me. Please post a link to the form so I can take a quick look.

its on a local server.. I am not getting any errors with firebug or nothing with ie.. I am thinking its conflicting with something else maybe
GreyHead 28 Mar, 2013
hi xbatx,

There are a few things that can cause problems, but the <p> tags are by far the most common.

Hi,

Are you sure that you don't have any elements floating over the button ? you have "overlay" class in your body tag and I'm not sure how that affects your page source, but if the form is working good through the "Test form" button in the wizard then it must be something in your template or by some module/plugin.

Regards,
Max
