Why Submit button hangs on "Please wait"?

    Hi,

    Users have reported issues where forms are completed and once they press submit, the box hangs on 'Please wait' and the form isnt sent

    Please can you confirm if this is a Jotform server issue and how we can look to resolve the issue ?

    Thanks

    Richard

    We're sorry for the inconvenience.

    Could you please provide the Form ID and if the form is embedded in a website, please provide the URL of the website.

    So we can investigate further.

    We'll wait for your response.

    Thank you!

    Hello Richard,

    I'm sorry for the trouble caused to you. 

    The URL which you have shared is direct custom URL of your form. I believe you have not embedded your form in any webpage. Is that correct?

    I did test your form and I am unable to replicate the issue you are having. I was able to submit your form successfully and thank you message was also displayed successfully. Please check the screenshot below:

    I would suggest you to please test your form again and get back to us if the issue persists. 

    We will wait for your response.

    Thank you!

    Thanks for reviewing this
    The form is not embedded on a website, its standalone link that users save on the browser
    It happens now and then so it will likely work for your test. However 2 separate users today have raised it as an issue, its like the form disconnects. Does it time out once its opened and the user hits the send button ?

    I tested it again just now. It took like ten seconds saying "Please wait..."

    But it went through. And I got the thank you page:

    Hi,
    Thanks for your reply
    Sometimes it just says please wait and doesn’t move on. What is causing this delay and can we do anything about it ? maybe even save the form and re-send at a later date ?
    Thanks

    Hello Richard,

    I again tested this issue and I am unable to replicate the issue. I was able to submit your form successfully without any problem. 

    When this issue happens again, please share the screenshot of the browser console message and we will take a look. Please check the screenshot below on how to check the browser console:

    Hi there
    As below
    Would you mind clarifying why we cannot access the uploaded documents on the Jotform. I would log this on the internet but thought it was easier to forward on the screenshots etc
    The form used was called “Credit Request Form”

    Thanks
    Richard

    I moved your last question to this thread: https://www.jotform.com/answers/1217583 since it is unrelated to the original issue.

    Thank you!
