Dear Aicha,

The 3.2.1 Visform version is awesome! I really love to use it and thank you very much for your effort.

Just a small improvement please :-)
My form sitting at the end of the page, but scrolling up automatically when the form is loaded -- because the first input field get focus by JavaScript. Get-focus is great when a filed is required and after submission "grab" the related input.
Can you fix this please?

Best,
Gabor

Hi Gabor,

good to hear, that you like the 3.2 "series" of Visforms.
I think, I was able to provide a lot of new features which were high priority on the feature wish list.

You mave have seen, that 3.2.x are a beta versions and I have already release to new versions, after Visforms users have detected some bugs. But I have not include the Joomla! autoupdater in the beta versions, so you get no message, that there is an update available. I strongly recommend, to download the latest version (3.2.2), which I released yesterday.

About your suggestion. The autofocus in the first form field was a suggestion of users, too, with regard to make Visforms easier to use for people with disabilities. But thanks for your suggestion. I will consider, if there is a better (more flexible) solution.

Or you can make an template override and just remove the code (see below) that set the focus to the first field.
Code:
//set focus to first visible field if (($this->firstControl == true) && ((!(isset($field->isDisabled))) || ($field->isDisabled == false))) { $script = '<script type="text/javascript">'; $script .= 'jQuery(document).ready( function(){'; $script .= 'jQuery("#'. $field->errorId.'").focus();'; $script .= '});'; $script .= '</script>'; echo $script; $this->firstControl = false; }

Regards,
Aicha

Dear Aicha,

I installed the new version, thank you.

It seems the template override not working for me. First I used to Joomla's default template override feature by template manager, and after that I did it manually, but no result.
The HTML source code is:
Code:
<script type="text/javascript">jQuery(document).ready( function(){jQuery("#field14").focus();});</script>

I removed the code from default_visforms.php (line 52) what you suggested, deleted browser cache, restart it, but the first field get focus again.

Do you have any idea?

Hi Gabor,

do you use the module or the component (= menu of type Visforms) to show the form? If you use the module you have to override the files in from the module. So path to override-file is either
yourTemplate/html/mod_visforms (for the module)
or
yourTemplate/html/com_visforms/visforms (for the component)

Which layout did you select in the form?
Default Layout is created by the file default_visforms.php
Bootstrap Layouts are created by the file default_btdefault.php
So you have to override the correct file.

Regards,
Aicha
