Using jquery in custom Contribution (and other) Smarty based forms
October 14, 2013, 10:46:12 am
When I upgraded to 4.3.5 from an old release of CiviCRM jquery in Smarty custom forms broke.  I've seen that in previous release of Civi patches were issued to address the problem.  Are there any workarounds to allowing Civi jquery libraby calls in custom smarty forms and if not what plans are there for support of making such calls?  Thanks!

Hi,

jquery works fine on custom templates. However, the underlying assumptions on your old code about what was where in the html code are most probably not correct anymore and the html code has probably changed quite a fair bit.

You are the one having the knowledge of what it did, I'm afraid you'll have to dig back in the code and see what it does(n't) do with the new version. Fortunately, the js debuggers are pretty decent, so shouldn't be too hard to trace.

I created a new Contribution page (a copy of an old one), then copied the generic Main.tpl into the designated custom folder, and when I select a Country it is not switching to the appropriate state/Province list.  When I load the page I get cj is not defined for the piece of code that would normally to the country/State/Province switching.  When I go into civi and do a "view live page" it works fine.

I'm not sure if this is the right place for this (I'm not using a custom template), but I'm trying to use contributions for different countries for the first time and I notice the State/Provinces list does not change when the country is selected.

Things work OK on the demo site, which is 4.4 - I'm using 4.3.7, the latest stable release.

UPDATE: I'm using a profile for the contribution page and I found the following:

http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,16815.msg71827.html#msg71827

The user says he/she solved the problem by placing the Country field above the State/Province field, but this is not working for me - all states for all countries appear in every case.

Amy ideas? Thanks...
