Place it in your theme's function.php file.<br /> <pre><code>add_action(&#39;gform_register_init_scripts&#39;, &#39;register_custom_init_script&#39;, 10, 2); function register_custom_init_script($form, $field_values){ $script = &quot;info_scripts();&quot;; GFFormDisplay::add_init_script($form[&#39;id&#39;], &#39;my_custom_script&#39;, GFFormDisplay::ON_PAGE_RENDER, $script); }</code></pre> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/call-javascript-function-upon-validation-error#post-74270 Thu, 06 Sep 2012 18:31:01 +0000 Andre Macola 74270@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You can see here: <a href="http://maco.la/disbrave" rel="nofollow">http://maco.la/disbrave</a> at footer.

If found, you'll know that you'll want to run your code.</p> <pre><code>&lt;script type=&quot;text/javascript&quot;&gt; jQuery(document).ready(function(){ if(jQuery(&quot;div.validation_error&quot;).length != 0){ // code that should be run if the validation error exists goes here } }); &lt;/script&gt;</code></pre> <p>Double check that code as I just wrote it in this forum post on the fly. Should do the trick though. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/call-javascript-function-upon-validation-error#post-16742 Thu, 20 Jan 2011 22:54:00 +0000 edmire 16742@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Is there anyway to call a javascript function upon validation error?</p> <p>Let's say I have a simple text field that is required. If I click Submit without populating the field, I get "There was a problem with your submission.<br /> Errors have been highlighted below". It's great but I'd like to be able to call a javascript function in addition to displaying the error message. What would be the best way to accomplish that? Thanks. </p>
