Form question

Permalink
Hi,
I have a tricky one .... I am using bootstrap Tabs and in one tab I have a form block (let's say Tab4). The issue is that when I send a form, the tabset reinitializes back to Tab 1 , that means that I cannot see the confirmation message to confrm the form was sent and I don't know if I made any error ...
Has anyone any idea of how how could correct this ?
Many thanks

Not sure what add-ons you are using, but there's only really two ways to do this.

Either send your form post asyncronously via AJAX, so you don't leave/refresh the page on form post.

Or, you could detect the post on the subsequent page load and setup your Boostrap tab as active based on the existence of $_POST variables.

Both options involve code, and how you implement will depend on how you're setup & how the add-ons you're using (if any) work.

Hope that's a start.

What @formigo describes is pretty much how Magic Tabs does it.
