required checkbox fields not validating

Hello, So I have another form that is working properly, however I have 2 options for a user to check to let me know if they are looking for Support via phone or in person. In the form builder I selected that a minimum choice should be 1 and a maximum choice should be 2 selected (since there was no requirement). I also listed a validation message.

The form works fine when one or two things are checked (it posts, goes to redirect page/etc.).

But if neither are check it just goes back to the form - the validation message doesn't display - so there is no way that the user knows the reason the form doesn't submit.

Thanks for your help!

in the webassist/jq_validation/Cafe.css file

change:
.serverInvalidState {
display: none;
}

to:
.serverInvalidState {
//display: none;
}



the width for the form labels cant be set on an individual basis in the form builder wizard. you would need to edit the label code manually to add an inline style tag, for example:

<label style="width: 332px;" for="iagree" class="sublabel"> I understand that I am requesting Premiuim Support and I will be charged for this.<span class="requiredIndicator">&nbsp;*</span></label>


also, where you want the user to chose one item or the other, phone or email, you should be using radio buttons instead of checkboxes.

checkboxes are used where they should be able to chose multiple options.

radio buttons are used when the user should be able to choose only one option.

Thanks so much the labels adjusted does work...I did replace the the validation in the cafe.css file, but that didn't seem to do anything - also, now the date picker is not coming to the foreground as it did (see attachment).

I appreciate the mentioning with the radio buttons. I was going to go that route but wanted them to be able to select both items which is why I went with the check boxes and the validation of a minimum choice being 1 selection and a maximum choice of being 2 selections. I hope that makes sense?

Thank you for your help!

I can see the vlaidation error messages on your page now, so updating the cafe.css file did seam to work

the CSS for the datepicker is not found on the server:

http://www.saviodesigns.com/webassist/forms/fd_basic_default/Datepicker/css/jquery-custom.css

Thanks for the reply....on my local site I don't even have the datepicker css that you were referring to - the closest thing I have is webassist/forms/fd_basic_default/theme/Datepicker/css/jquery-ui-1.7.1.custom.css

Can you send me the file that you are referring to so I can load that?


The checkbox problem is resolved (I think I was looking at an old cache).

Thanks so much!

attached is a copy of the jquery-custom.css file

Thanks so much! that worked!

you're welcome.
