I've been trying to make a popup form with a timer. I succeed in producing the form and it popping up but the timer keeps making popup time and time again!!! If I try to make changes via the submit button then the form does not submit the required information, there are several tutorials but they all have the same problem of them constantly popping up. Can any one help

Did you set the timer to 'timeout' instead of 'interval'?

Yes I've tried both!

In that case I need your project file so I can see your other settings.

I think this is what you want! You will find the problem on my index.php page

It seems to work correct.
What exactly do I need to do to see the problem?

Tip: to test this reliably, first remove all manually added code to make sure it does not conflict with the timer.

No my laptop the form pops up OK but once I've added the information it keeps popping up!

What exactly do I need to do to see the problem?

Just enter some details submit and it will reappear, it should not keep reappearing.

Just enter some details submit and it will reappear, it should not keep reappearing. Also I notice after the form has been sent the page totally refreshes

I also wonder why my text and one of the images keeps refreshing too fading image and scrolling text, they are both set to do nothing.

Your form does not have a success or error page, so after submission it will reload the current page and this will restart the timer...

Also, note that a form should not be on a layer.
Instead, enable the form functionality of the layer itself.

So what do I do, if I just want to gather the information close the pop up form and stay on the original page?

You should set a success page that is not the same as the current page.
If you use the same page then the browser will reload the page and restart the timer.

I think I've got it now, my only problem is the scrolling moving text? I've no idea why this happens, I've set nothing to make it happen.

Where exactly on the page do I need to look to see this text?

"Choose your language here" top right, and the yellow image below (Angie's pet sitting)

You did not include the images with your project so I cannot see what it looks like.
What is the ID of the object?

Hi the text Id is Text1 and the image Id is Image1

I'm sorry, I do not see any scrolling moving text.
Is your website online so I can see it?

Hi sorry I did not respond, I've been away, yes my website is on line www.paperbriquettepress.com

I still do not see any scrolling/moving text.
Maybe it's a 'feature' of your browser?

Pablo I think the scrolling text that is getting referred to is in the following screenshot, look for "It's a pure tech genius".... I cant see this in the source because there is so much custom code added that makes it hard to decipher....For reference Pablo this screenshot was taken on my mobile/cell using desktop mode in mobile it doesn't show.



Keith on a personal note I would lose this popup, due to there's now way to close it unless you input your details what if the user doesn't want to input his/her details? this way you are forcing input...

The yellow pet sitting keeps refreshing along with the text above, "select your language here" Is it because I have the rotating image to the left of the heading maybe.

With regard to the popup form if I put a close icon then it simply keeps refreshing and loading again and again with the timer!!

The text 'It's a pure tech genius"' is part of Carousel3.

Now I am confused your question was about scrolling text... now its about text and a image refreshing..
Anyway, its is because you have added/implemented css animation to these objects this can be seen in the source if you do not wish this you will need to remove the animations.

Pablo.... reading from this member it is not scrolling text now! but related to animations on text and a image he mentions... arghhh confused.com

With regard to the popup form if I put a close icon then it simply keeps refreshing and loading again and again with the timer!!

When closing the dialog you are refreshing the page. so that is why it restarts the timer!

Sorry that is my confusion it is refreshing at set periods, I've no idea how this has happened I'll try and remove the css animations the only code would have been generated by WYSIWYG because I have no idea about coding! Other than adding html blocks like adverts and statcounter etc!

Animations can be configured via the 'CSS3 animation' settings. You may have accidentally copied it from a template.
