I am trying to do the same thing with a popup window for errors as opposed to the boxes. My form is here: <a href="http://www.firstcanadianmovers.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.firstcanadianmovers.com</a></p> <p>The highlight red boxes expands and destroys my form so this popup solution is ideal. Can you comment out some of your code in the future? Appreciate all the help.

I don't need the red boxes or the error text under/around the form fields as they are not only redundant in this instance, but causing the form to get all screwed up.</p> <p>Note that both the name and the email fields provide the error box so I need it so that no matter if either or both of the two fields are incorrect, neither will provide the error message/box.</p> <p>Thanks.<br /> <a href="http://testing.musedigitaldesign.com/site8/" rel="nofollow">http://testing.musedigitaldesign.com/site8/</a> (In the header) </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/error-message-2#post-66674 Tue, 17 Jul 2012 12:25:39 +0000 Rob Harrell 66674@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Yes, if you could and we can work through it together. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/error-message-2#post-66554 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 18:29:52 +0000 kbdunham 66554@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Yes, please.

This took way too much time to try and figure out and I'm tired and frustrated.</p> <p>I'm not saying I'm a CSS expert. But I'm not a noob either. When I look inside the CSS for these forms, sometimes I feel like I'm looking at a website that was developed with too many nested tables 10 years ago. Sorry...just how I feel right now after over 2 hours of dickering around with CSS code to no avail. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/error-message-2#post-66361 Mon, 16 Jul 2012 00:18:15 +0000 kbdunham 66361@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>How do you get rid of not only the error message, but the pink box surrounding the form fields? Its not enough to just make the background of these div's transparent. I don't want them to display at all. However, I can't seem to find the correct CSS to make the form fields display without the pink error boxes.</p> <p>I am dealing with a really small space and these pink boxes are causing a lot of problems with my form displaying nicely if the wrong data is entered into the box.</p> <p>I have been able to create a popup error message that explains all fields are required. So in this case, the pink boxes are redundant. </p> <p>Finally, I don't want to get rid of these pink boxes on all forms on the site, just the one in the header.</p> <p>All help is really appreciated as I've just about pulled out all my hair trying to figure this one out.</p> <p>URL of form (in header): <a href="http://testing.musedigitaldesign.com/site8/life-coaching/" rel="nofollow">http://testing.musedigitaldesign.com/site8/life-coaching/</a> </p>
