Form JQuery Not Working When Lightbox Is Used

Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi there,

I have injected some JQuery code into my page in order to set a few conditional fields within a form. The conditional fields are triggered depending on the selection from a radio button as shown below:

As you can see when a number other than 0 is selected the conditional fields get displayed.

The form works perfectly as expected but the problem is when I switch to form to a lightbox the JQuery seems to stop working and the conditional fields do not appear, no matter the selection.

What am I missing here? Any help on this would be appreciated 🙂

The code must wait until the form has loaded, not the page. When the form is on the page, both load at the same time but when it is a lightbox form it won't be added to the page until the form is launched.

Thanks Paul, would you have an example of code that would work for recognising if the form is launched or not? I have tried these examples below so far:

$('#yui_3_17_2_1_1643211118624_394').on( "load", function() {
        
});
if($('#yui_3_17_2_1_1643211118624_394').is(':visible')){

}

It's more complex than that 🙂. You'll need a Mutation Observer to detect the changes.
