Re: Mandatory multi-select pick lists for forms

Zurine,

 

Did you ever get anywhere with this? I have almost figured out how to do multi-select in E10 with a patched version of LiveValidation, which is the javascript library that Eloqua uses to do form validation.

 

A working proof of concept that multiselect validation with LiveValidation is possible is here: http://jsfiddle.net/dk01/WMEYn/

 

The problems now are two fold and really are on Eloqua to fix IMO:

  1. LiveValidation's project has not been updated in 3 years by its owner. As such there is an issue opened for fixing this problem but has never been implemented by the library's author: error validating multi-select (selected index -1) · Issue #3 · alechill/livevalidation · GitHub
  2. I've tried just including my patched version of LiveValidation into Eloqua to force this to work, but because the Eloqua's version of LiveValidation is embedded after my version in the DOM, there is not a way that I can think of to override their old version.

 

So what we need are:

  1. People to positively comment on my pull request on the most recently updated branch of LiveValidation: https://github.com/PerformanceHorizonGroup/livevalidation/pull/1
  2. Once that patch is added, for Eloqua to upgrade their LiveValidation to that version.

 

Or, Eloqua could just upgrade their code with those few lines to enable multi-select validation. Here's hoping for a fix soon!

 

Jim
