Modal window (lightbox evolution) and submit / validation

    Hey everybody,

    This plugin is just great! But there's one small problem that I'm facing right now. I've managed to open the form in a lightbox (wordpress plugin lightbox evolution) and it works to send the data. But when I hit the submit button there's no confirmation message and the fields are not validated (AJAX on and off). I think this is due to the display:none status on the container. I've tried to use the redirect instead, but this doesn't work either.

    Any ideas how to solve it. The most important thing is to give the user the feedback, that their message has been sent.

    Info about the system:
    Wordpress 3.3.2
    Gravity Forms 1.6.4.4.1
    Lightbox Evolution 1.6.1

    Thanks in advance!

    Tim

    Well I think it's not the combination of the plugins, rather a custom fields problem. I am using a wysiwyg field to insert the shortcode in my template. The field is being displayed, but as mentioned before, there is no validation or confirmation.

    My code:
    <?php $form_data = get_post_meta($post->ID,'wpcf-application_form',true) ?>
    <?php echo do_shortcode($form_data); ?>

    I have the exact same thing. I am opening the form in a shadowbox, but the confirmation doesn't show, only when I press submit twice. It also gives no errors if I leave a box empty. It doesn't show either.
