Use Ajax?

kalkal 18 Feb, 2014
Hi,
I make a form that the user can complete and submit to an e-mail.
How can I make it to behave interactively?

I want this

"A message is sent between the browser and the server and the page updated using the results sent back from the server."

but for all the fields of the form.

For example to sent fields about a person or product or whatever and the server sent back results.

The CF v4 Using Ajax could help me? Is there any plugin that I could use?
Thank you.

Hi kalkal,

You can do that in ChronoForms but you'd need to hand-code both the JavaScript to handle the Ajax call/response and the serverside PHP to create the response.

Hi,

v5 has this feature by default, you may install it beside v4 and use it for this specific form only!

Both answers are good.
Is it possible to have 2 differend versions of chronoform in one site? If yes I will try it else I will study Javascript and PHP.
Thank you.

Yes possible, you can have both v4 and v5 on the same website!

Ok,
I have both chronoforms and chronoforms v.5 in joomla. The form tha made in v.4 works in v.5. Now, what action I should use in v.5 to do the above?

Under the "HTML" action settings in v5 you can find and enable the AJAX option

Hi Max,
I have enabled AJAX submit option. Is there any example in this forum to see because I've just begun to understand v.4 and now in v.5 I am confused.
(Sorry for my English)

Thank you.

After you enable the ajax submit in v5, the form should submit without refreshing the whole page, it doesn't work for you ?
