Form Submits on Enter before completing all field

On closer review of the Forminator form behaviour I realise that the Select field is NOT validating when flagged as required.
Conditional visibility is however working to hide the rest of the form until this Select field has input.
This is allowing the Enter or Go key to submit the form.
I have solved this by not using the Select field in my form.
All appears to be now working. ??

Hi @rmesupport

I hope you are doing well.

Thank you for the information and I am happy to hear you found a workaround.

Another solution that you can try is to create an empty value in the first option:

Hi Patrick

Thank you for your prompt reply and assistance.
I did try the empty value option during my search for a solution – without success.
I am going to test it all again by trying with and without “select” checked.

Thanks,
Brett

Hi @rmesupport

Thanks for response!

Please update us once you’re done with your testing as it can be very useful feedback for our developers.

However, I admit I just tried to replicate this submission behavior on my test site and… I wasn’t able to. I couldn’t force the form to get submitted on “enter” in any way without all required fields filled in. I’m pretty sure I’m missing something here then.

If you don’t find workaround during your tests, would you be able to share your form with us to test?

You can export any form from Forminator (it won’t export submitted data, just the form itself) and share export file via pastebin.com or Google Drive or similar service (just post a link to it in response).

Best regards,
Adam

Hi Adam
I will do the testing and update here – I am caught up with “Go Live” for the next few days but can progress the testing after that. I suspect the issue may be caused by my conditions within the form build but i will look into that during testing.

Hi Patrick

I have done some more detailed testing on this issue.

Your solution ” to create an empty value in the first option:” does work. A closer review of my attempt to use an empty value earlier has revealed that the value field was not as empty as I thought – it had a “space” in there. This “space” may have been generated from using a “space” as content in the label field.

I have further eliminated the impact of the “Go” or “Enter” actions by removing the “submit” button from display. I achieved this by adding the following code in the “Custom CSS” section under “Appearance” –

.forminator-button-submit {
display: none;
}

I believe the removal of the “Submit” button in this way only works for me because I am using the “Paypal” button to do the final submit.

Thank you for your great supoort and an awesome product

Best Regards
Brett
