Conditional statement in form depending on field answer

Hi there - I'm thinking of using Gravity Forms for a completed set-of-forms set-up. To make it work, I need to be able to implement this scenario:

A person is filling in a form. One or more fields in the form need to be answered in a certain way for it to make any sense to continue with the form. For example, let's say there's an A, B or C multichoice field. It only makes sense to continue if the user answers A. I can use conditional logic to hide all subsequent questions if the user doesn't answer A (i.e, if s/he answers B or C), but I'd like a warning box to appear when the user answers B or C. Ideally a red extension to the current field would show, which would contain customised wording I set, basically informing the user that she cannot continue unless she answers in a certain way. This is not the same as setting a field to "Required status". It's more refined than that. The user needs to be able to answer in different ways (as opposed to answer or not answering at all) but I need the option for a warning to appear if s/he answers B or C (in this example).

Is this sort of thing possible with Gravity Forms? Or will it only be possible when you add the forthcoming text option (which presumably will enable one to let that text appear by reference to conditional logic)?

Many thanks

Thanks Carl. I'm afraid the jQuery code you mention is beyond me. I understand entirely if this isn't a runner, but is there any chance one of the team could post some sample code to show how this would work in practice please?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Cheers

Hi Spivurno

Yes, I think it is only when a non-proceeding answer is selected that I want the warning text to appear. As regards your second question, I think I could use GF's existing conditional logic to hide the remaining fields (or sections of fields) on the form when a person selects a non-proceeding answer within a field.

Perhaps I should also clarify that I'm hoping to have multiple non-proceeding answers, across different fields, within the single form. So the single form might be quite complex, with up to 20 or 30 questions. Along the way, there'd be a handful of non-proceeding answers for some answers to some of the fields.

Come to think of it, it would also be excellent if I could disable the submit button when a person selects a non-proceeding answer.

I hope this makes sense.

Thanks in advance if you're able to provide some help on this. Much appreciated.

That's superb. Thanks so much. Very much appreciated David.

If I could just clarify a couple of points please:

(1) does the code go in the functions.php file?
(2) does "input 3_3" mean form 3 field 3 (excuse the ignorance, I should know this one...)

Many thanks. Superb.

Hi again - I'm now trying this but am having trouble getting the javascript file (init.js) into the right place. I've called the script in my header.php but doubt that's the right place for it. Can someone help please?

Many thanks
Richard
