Hi, all.
I am sorry to post this because it is probably something extremely simple that a newbie like me is overlooking. But I have searched and tested, and searched some more. And tested some more.
I'm just stuck. And very frustrated.
I LOVE Chronoforms and think it's a great component. I look forward to doing a great deal with it. I want to create a tabbed form, and I just can't get the tabs to work like tabs. They all stay visible down the page instead of acting like tabs.
I started fresh with a new form and followed the "How can I build a tabbed form?" FAQ (as well as added an additional CSS for the code that wasn't in my template's CSS).
Here is what the form looks like as of this post:
http://www.karihowell.com/index.php?option=com_chronoforms&chronoform=manuscript-form
I just want to get the tabs to work first and then fill in the other inputs later.
Let's see:
* Installed ChronoForms v4.
* Mootools is installed (I think).
* Joomla 2.5.7
* I used the Form Wizard to create the form (rather than the Easy Wizard).
* Free Joomla template called StormLab.
Ask me anything. If help me solve it, I might even buy you a beer. How's that for bribery?
Please help if you have time.
Thanks,
Kari

Hi Kari,
I've just rediscovered your post, sorry about that.
It looks to me as if the problem is that your template isn't loading the Joomla! MooTools library. Try switching temporarily to one of the default templates and I'd expect the tabs to work.
You can force the library to load with this code in a Custom Code action in the On Load event of your form

<?php
JHTML::_('behavior.mootools'); // Use this line for Joomla! 2.5
// JHtml::_('behavior.framework', true); // Use this line for Joomla! 3+

Hi, Bob.
Thanks so much for replying. Unfortunately, when I re-installed the default template Beez20 and switched the site to that template, the form looked exactly the same. When I switched back and added the Custom Code event with the code provided, nothing changed then either.
What else would you recommend for me to troubleshoot? If it isn't against the rules, I can provide you a user to take a look behind the scenes. Just message me privately.
Thanks again for any help,
Kari

Hi Kari,
The MooTools file exists on your site - you need to work out why it isn't being loaded
http://www.karihowell.com/media/system/js/mootools-core.js
By all means email or PM me the site URL and a SuperAdmin login and I'll take a quick look.
