Radio Buttons question re: auto advancing when clicked on classic forms.

    Asked on June 6, 2021 at 2:26 PM

    I've used some custom css Jotform support posted in an earlier support reply.  

    https://www.jotform.com/answers/2134809-css-styling-of-radio-buttons-widget


    When an option is clicked the form just remains inert (sits there) as when you use the default Single Choice option it automatically advances when clicked. Is there a way to have it 'advance' when clicked with css.

    Here is what I'm trying to accomplish overall:

    I like a lot of the features of the card layout but you lose a lot of styling and customizatiopn options like hover text, etc.

    So what I'm doing is recreating the look and feel of the card layout by using the classic layout but putting a PAGE BREAK after every answer. That page break also has the NEXT button hidden and then AUTO NEXT option enabled.

    This mimics the look and feel of the card view while allowing use of all of the customization options of the classic view.

    Everything is working great except the Radio Button widget (which I used the css from the example in the link) doesn't advance.

    Thanks!

    Hi there,

    Thanks for reaching out to us!

    Kindly note that we offer a feature called "Auto Next" for classic forms, which can be enabled as shown below.

    But please note that it supports only radio buttons (Single-choice fields) and dropdowns as stated above.

    I hope I have been of any help.

    Should you have any further inquiries, we will be more than happy to help.

    Hi, thanks for the answer but it didn't resolve my question, I'm hoping there is a solution. I am using the functionality that you showed and it works for the basic radio button, but I'm trying to get it to work with the Radio Button widget. Any thoughts?
