Took zip codes out for the post to save space.<br /> 2. I tried many things but I guess its beyond me on how to properly merge a zipcode array with conditional javascript. Just not sure what I am missing. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/open-a-new-gravity-form-upon-form-validation-error#post-154573 Mon, 25 Feb 2013 23:35:58 +0000 Chris Hajer 154573@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Looking at your code I have a few questions:</p> <p>1. Why is the zipcodes array empty on this line?<br /> <a href="http://pastie.org/6335799#12" rel="nofollow">http://pastie.org/6335799#12</a></p> <p>2. Your code to open the modal window would be executed for every field in the form, due to where you placed it in the loop. If you look at David's code, the modal dialog will only be added if $zip_failed_validation were true for any field in the loop, otherwise the form is just returned. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/open-a-new-gravity-form-upon-form-validation-error#post-154319 Mon, 25 Feb 2013 14:59:13 +0000 mr_jonboy 154319@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I tried to take what was stated above and merge it with a zip code validation array in another post that I found. However this is not creating the desired result. Would someone willing to provide some assistance on this code. Obviously this is pretty new to me. :-)</p> <p><a href="http://pastie.org/6335799" rel="nofollow">http://pastie.org/6335799</a> </p> <p>Thank you. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/open-a-new-gravity-form-upon-form-validation-error#post-151588 Thu, 21 Feb 2013 11:08:24 +0000 mr_jonboy 151588@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Thank you very much.

If so, you can output your custom JS to load the modal with the separate form. Here is some sample code:</p> <p><a href="http://pastie.org/6260849" rel="nofollow">http://pastie.org/6260849</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/open-a-new-gravity-form-upon-form-validation-error#post-150921 Wed, 20 Feb 2013 11:28:19 +0000 mr_jonboy 150921@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I am looking for the best/easiest way to run a new gravity form when the current form fails validation. Example: user enters a zip code that is not valid upon submission. When the form fails validation a second form opens which is used to gather user contact info so they can be notified when their zip code is available.</p> <p>Does anyone have an answer already to this that I was unable to find in the search or have any ideas as to a solution?</p> <p>Thanks in advance. </p>
