Jörn, changed it as you mention, and loaded up Firebug - but still not
getting anywhere.
I do see in Firebug :
defaults -> messages -> storename_name -> remote -> "Please fix this
field." But I never see it on the webpage. I've only see "This field
is required."
I also see some information in :
attributes -> 4 (remote nodeName) -> ownerElement - is there
something specific I should be looking for?
I changed everything identical to the Marketo signup form example just
to see if I can get it to work, but nothing.
This is the code inside my checkstore.php
<?php
$request = trim(strtolower($_REQUEST['storename_name']));
$emails = array('g...@marketo.com', 'geo...@bush.gov', 'm...@god.com',
'aboutf...@cooper.com', 'st...@valve.com', 'b...@gates.com');
$valid = 'true';
foreach($emails as $email) {
if( strtolower($email) == $request )
$valid = 'false';
}
echo $valid;
?>
Should I remove the remote attribute in my input element and put it in
the jquery?
Should I be loading any kind of ajax plugin script in my <head>?
Does it matter if I'm using the validator (class="required") on the
input element together with a 2nd jquery plugin (id=storeAutoSuggest)?
Any guidance is appreciated. I'm still trying to figure it our myself
too.
