One of my colleagues helped set it up, misread the instructions, and put the clearit class on all the fields AND on the form itself. That caused the weird windows behavior. Interesting, b/c it didn't happen on Macs :) Took us forever to figure out b/c of that little oddity. </p> <p>Thanks! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/windows-machines-only-form-does-not-submit-on-first-try-must-reload-page#post-68025 Thu, 26 Jul 2012 06:30:06 +0000 Chris Hajer 68025@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You have something very strange going on with that form. I see exactly what you mean when you submit the first time on Windows. But I never went to submit it a second time. I was watching the URL in the address bar, and it was changing.

On my Mac, the form on the homepage (bottom left) works perfectly in all browsers. When I test various browsers in IE,, the form won't submit on the first try; the submit button shrinks/squishes, the page doesn't submit, and you have to refresh and try again - then it works. </p> <p><a href="http://www.performancesigns.net/" rel="nofollow">http://www.performancesigns.net/</a></p> <p>I can't see any JS erors that might help me with the issue, and i've ruled out a weird CSS conflict by disabling the custom CSS I wrote for a test. Because my hair is starting to fall out in clumps from the stress of OMGWHY? ;-) </p> <p>Any ideas?</p> <p>Running the latest &amp; greatest release of GF from the 23rd, and WordPress 3.4.1 </p>
