Thanks again for the Pastie, it really helped me out. I have still a question regarding this : In the original pastie (<a href="http://pastie.org/2906268" rel="nofollow">http://pastie.org/2906268</a>) the first $input variable is empty ! I can click my button "Facebook Like It !" in the admin and the custom field is displayed. If I change the value of my $input into something like this : <a href="http://pastie.org/2906281" rel="nofollow">http://pastie.org/2906281</a> The button "Facebook Like It !" in the admin doesn't work anymore. Do you have any idea why ? If I need to use it, I have to add the field with the value $input = ''; in my code then change the value of $input once the field is already into the form. Thanks again for your time and patience. J.

When AJAX is enabled, some scripts may need to be re-initialized when the page is submitted. The HTML5/javascript integration probably falls under that scenario. What I recommend you do is simply disable AJAX for your form.

In fact, my custom field will display a Facebook Like Box like here : <a href="http://www.tkwk.be/client/acea/www/contest-of-the-month/" rel="nofollow">http://www.tkwk.be/client/acea/www/contest-of-the-month/</a> My code for the custom field : <a href="http://pastie.org/2871065" rel="nofollow">http://pastie.org/2871065</a> The only problem is that after validation it seems that the Facebook Like Box which was containing an iFrame is now empty... I would like to understand why and find a way of fixing this issue. Your support is much appreciated. Cheers.

Following is the code with the fix: <a href="http://pastie.org/2869312" rel="nofollow">http://pastie.org/2869312</a> As far as the field disappearing after validation, I could not replicate it. Following is a screenshot of my form after failing validation. Note the text from your field is still there. <a href="http://grab.by/bfge" rel="nofollow">http://grab.by/bfge</a> Did I misunderstand the issue?

This field output a facebook LIKE box. Everything works fine until the validation. The LIKE box disappear and I would like it to stay on the page. Could you please advice me on how I could fix this problem ? Here is my code for adding the new field : <pre><code>add_action("gform_field_input", "facebooklike_input", 10, 5); function facebooklike_input($input, $field, $value, $lead_id, $form_id){ if($field["type"] == "facebook-like"){ $input = ''; if (sfc_is_fan()) { // Function developed by Simple Facebook Connect by Otto. $input .= 'You LIKE us on Facebook, your chances are doubled.'; } else { $input .= 'To double your chance to win, LIKE us on Facebook.'; } } return $input; } add_filter("gform_add_field_buttons", "add_facebooklike_field"); function add_facebooklike_field($field_groups){ foreach($field_groups as $group){ if($group["name"] == "advanced_fields"){ $group["fields"][] = array("class"=>"button", "value" => "Facebook Like it !", "onclick" => "StartAddField('facebook-like');"); break; } } return $field_groups; }</code></pre>
