Hi everybody,
I'm creating a big form using Chronoforms V4 and have come across a small bug display but which ruin the harmony.
Link with this message, you'll find an image of what happen when I click on each of the tabs of the first row. An annoying white space pushes the rest of the tabs.
Is there a fix to prevent that behaviour or is it all my fault for having a form too big? 😲
Thanks you for this amazing free extension.

Hi Chellaoui,
I think that you are asking too much of the Joomla! tab code :-(
You could try making the labels shorter use <br /> to fold the longer ones onto two lines; or, perhaps better, use sliders instead of tabs as they will handle may more sections smoothly; or, better still turn this into a multi-page form.
? is it actually a single form - it looks more like a big menu to me?

Hi GreyHead,
Thanks for the quick response,
Yes I know, this form is way too big, but I wanted everything in one form so i could maybe share it conveniently with other webmaster but that part I don't really master yet so I kept adding adding until I came across that bug.
So you say it's a joomla! tab, I thought Max wrote it, I should maybe ask to a joomla! forum then...
I used an element custom element with <br/> between the first and the second tabs without success.
I tried the slider thing and it works well but it's not as convenient as the tab because you can't see everything without scrolling down which is a pain.
I am really hesitating to turn this into a multi-page form because I've put so much work in it and everything works perfectly except for that annoying bug display, so I'm still weighting the pros and cons.
It IS a single form :-) , 12 tabs connecting 10 databases and everything works with ajax calls. The page never reloads and dynamically shows the data from db and dynamically updates it. I wrote much of the code myself because of the ajax part and the need to clone element, I mainly used chronoform to create the form and to practice joomla! in a more guided way.
It's my first joomla! project, thank for your time and sorry for my english.

Hi again,
I fixed this bug totally randomly, I was looking to style my form using this guide .
I tried to add this css rule cf_inputbox { border: 1px solid blue; } which didn't work, so I tried various selector until I tried this one .tabs.
And miraculously, It fixed my double row tab bug display! I don't know why, I don't know how but it works.
Hope this will help other people
Cheers,
Mokhtar
