Javascript in new form

jneale 13 Apr, 2024
I have a form created using a custom HTML "content" section. The form correctly accepts entries and sends emails. 

However, I have a javascript function I've created using a custom javascript "content" section to count letters and display results in 'read only" fields. 

The javascript has been entered without the "{script} {/script} tags. 

Note: I've used this same HTML and javascript in previous version of Chronoforms (v4 and v6), but can't get the form to either count or display the results. Also, I've placed the javascript section above the HTML in the "Load" area. 

Aside from those fields, the form loads and works perfectly. 

I'm sure there's a technique I'm missing, and can't find it in any of the documentation. 

Please advise the steps to take. 

Thanks!

Did you try ChronoMyAdmin for managing your Joomla database tables ?

Maybe your javascript is not adjusted to v8, v8 uses vanilla javascript and does not load jQuery, does your code use jQuery ? did you make sure that you are referencing the correct fields ids and classes ?
