jump between pages

    I have a multi-page form on my site and I have created icons for the different pages. I have also added functions that stores the data to database and recalls their answers when they come back to the form. Once they have completed the form once. I don't want them to have to click through every page to change an answer... What I am trying to accomplish is letting the user click the image and jump to that page.

    I have designed the images/icons to work as a progress bar.. They are gray until they reach that page, then they are green. I have added these icons in a html block at the top of each page and have added the following code to them.

    <input type="image" src="http://leafywallet.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/button_1.png" width="60" height="60" onclick="jQuery("#gform_target_page_number2_3").val('3'); jQuery("#gform_3").trigger("submit",[true]); ">

    With the value changing for a particular page.. but, when they click on any of the images, it only goes to next page.

    How would I do this?

    It would be great to get some insight into this.. My client is bugging me... lol

    If someone needs to see exactly what I am talking about, here is the link.
    btw, the website is http://leafywallet.com/calculate-your-c-q

    but the site is a membership site and will require a quick sign up.

    Shouldn't it be #gform_target_page_number_3 vs #gform_target_page_number2_3? Just looking at the example that Alex gave you previously. I'm no JavaScript expert, and most of the support staff have left for the day.

    this was a typo

    <input type="image" src="http://leafywallet.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/button_1.png" width="60" height="60" onclick="jQuery("#gform_target_page_number2_3").val('3'); jQuery("#gform_3").trigger("submit",[true]); ">

    this is what I have

    <input type="image" src="http://leafywallet.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/07/button_1.png" width="60" height="60" onclick="jQuery("#gform_target_page_number_3").val('3'); jQuery("#gform_3").trigger("submit",[true]); ">

    Instead of putting it on the actual image, can you do the following:

    In your header.php file can you put code related to each click event using .click http://api.jquery.com/click/

    You will also want to give a CSS class to each one. Then you can target each element and we can see what is going on. That's my best "not so good with JavaScript" suggestion on getting this working.

    im not quite sure I follow?

    Currently, you have an input with an onclick event on each one.

    Can you instead change a few of them to test out the following:

    $(".button_2").click(function() {
         jQuery("#gform_target_page_number_3").val('3');
         jQuery("#gform_3").trigger("submit",[true]);
    });

    In your header.php instead of using the onclick event. Making sure that each picturehas its own class.

    Im so lost. Why am I adding this to the header and where does it need to go?

    Sorry, I assumed because you were doing something so custom that you were really savvy in terms of development. It might be best to have you wait until one of the developers are around tomorrow morning to have them look at this and give some step by step instructions for you rather than attempting to apply my fix which might not even fix the issue you are having.

    this needs to go in the header?

    $(".button_2").click(function() {
         jQuery("#gform_target_page_number_3").val('3');
         jQuery("#gform_3").trigger("submit",[true]);
    });

    I am really lost here.

    Is there an example somewhere that shows how to do this?

    I have got everything else functioning the way I want it and I think gravity form is awesome. I am quite capable when it comes to writing functions and such.. Maybe it has just been a long day and nothing is really registering with me right now.

    Will a developer be available in the morning?

    There will be multiple developers and multiple support staff. :) Let's work on it then, and I'll be sure that you get a solution that will work the first time.

  21. Hi, dez,

    I am seeing a problem when viewing the actual source of the page. The code you intend for the images isn't coming out correctly. Take a look at this image here of what the html source is: http://grab.by/eFLC . The html is all messed up so the onclick event doesn't even appear to be firing. It is probably an issue with the quotes when outputting the html; if using double-quotes to surround the text inside the onclick, use single-quotes around the name of the field when referencing it with jQuery. Oh, and make sure you are consistently using the word as "jQuery" with the uppercase Q.

    Take a look and see if it works once you get the html spitting out correctly because setting the hidden field that holds the target page number is right.

    Let us know how it goes.
