Is that what you're trying to do, give two values to one checkbox?

I will look into jQuery for the selection functionality. But what about adding a second "value" to each checkbox. I want to have an events name in one and it's time in the other. <a href="http://deom.se/temp/checkbox_second_value.png" rel="nofollow">See example image</a>. Cheers!

Gravity Forms can only handle the validation after the form is submitted the first time. It sound like you want to prevent the selection from happening in the first place. The only way I can think of to handle this functionality is with jQuery (or JavaScript.)

I'm making a form which should display a list of events as checkboxes. The users is meant to be able to choose as many as they like, as long as the time of the event is not conflicting with any of the ones they already have chosen. So I guess what needs to be done is adding another value field for each checkbox and then run a check for conflicts when new boxes are checked. Is this even possible? If so, how? Or maybe there's a better way to do this? Thanks in advance, best regards!
