The only difference is that I want to have images and radio buttons to make a selection, which in fact seems more simple than a date picker.</p> <p>Thanks,<br /> Alisa </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-to-populate-a-primary-form-field-using-lightbox-form#post-63480 Sun, 24 Jun 2012 22:06:38 +0000 Dancing Bay 63480@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I've been doing a lot of reading on the subject over the weekend. I do know that, under the Advanced tab, there's a check box for "Allow field to be populated dynamically". I did something similar years ago when I was a developer, so I know it's possible, but don't know if there's a way to do it with Gravity Forms and a lightbox. I'm hoping tomorrow when more people are "at work", I'll get an answer to my liking. The big problem is that this is all just a bit over my head, skills wise and I'm getting overwhelmed and frustrated. I created a plain html page today of the form. Plain as in, not built with wordpress but in a text editor. I just need to figure out how to get that form in a lightbox and how to get that lightbox to send the results to the base form. Hope it's doable.</p> <p>Thanks,<br /> Alisa </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-to-populate-a-primary-form-field-using-lightbox-form#post-63462 Sun, 24 Jun 2012 21:23:14 +0000 David Peralty 63462@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I don't think this is currently possible as the form would either have to post back to the main form, causing it to reload or through JQuery, which I'm not expert at. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-to-populate-a-primary-form-field-using-lightbox-form#post-63425 Sat, 23 Jun 2012 16:04:53 +0000 Dancing Bay 63425@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have a form to customize a product. I have a lot of different customization/variations options and most can be easily handled with regular form fields. However, I have 2 fields that need an image, so I would like to have the user click a link that pops up a lightbox form where they can make a selection that has a radio button next to an image. Then the results of that are dynamically added to the base form. Is this possible? Which lightbox would be best suited for this?</p> <p>Thanks,<br /> Alisa </p>
