Check a box on Submit?

Web Customizations Forms

Updated May 24, 2018

asked on May 22, 2018

In my form, there is a checkbox that controls a custom HTML (with some text) - is it possible to:

1. Hide the checkbox so user is forced to click Submit

2. On submit, the checkbox is set which in turn shows the custom HTML

3. Submitted form shows the custom HTML

Kinda a crazy need but I don't think the users will click on the Submit button after they see what they need to!

I'm confused with your process. When the user clicks submit before seeing the html, is that them actually submitting the form? Or do they need to read the html field before actually submitting?

You could paginate the form so they fill everything out on page 1, click a 'Submit' button which is really Next Page. Then on page 2, show the html text and have the actual submit button there.

Sorry, I know that it is confusing! Yes they actually submit the form then see the HTML. Is that possible?

That is a great suggestion however, I don't know that the user will click Submit once they see the information, I think they will just save what they need and close the browser without submitting.

Could you include the html information on the thank you page? This will require them to submit first, then see the html info after.

You could still include the html info on the saved form by duplicating the form with that information.
Your answers seem to suggest you need them to submit the form, see the html, then submit again?? Which I don't follow.

Hi Jared,

"Could you include the html information on the thank you page? This will require them to submit first, then see the html info after."

that is exactly what I need, but I am not sure how to accomplish! Sorry for being unclear.

Alternatively, you could have the custom HTML be a small popup window that the users must confirm before actually submitting. That way, they not only certainly see it, but must confirm they saw it to proceed.

Thanks Chris, but that doesn't guarantee that they will click Submit once they see it.

Yes you can. Just assign the confirmation button the class .Submit. In other words, it won't submit unless they confirm. Does that make sense?

The "yes' button is actually the submit button. Otherwise, it does not submit.
