How do I configure this auto-load for a drop-down menu?
<form action="?" id="myform">
<fieldset class="form-question">
<legend>What type of event are you planning?
<div class="general-event-question">
<select name="eventType" id="eventTypeDropDown">
<option value="wedding" name="eventType" id="isAWeddingEvent">A Wedding
<option value="general" name="eventType" id="isAGeneralEvent" for="eventTypeDropDown">
<<abel for="isAGeneralEvent">A General Event
</option>

  </select>
</div>

</fieldset>
<fieldset data-depends-on="eventType=isAGeneralEvent">
<p>hi

Thank you!

Hey,

lots of frameworks generate an <input type="hidden" name="check" value="default"> directly before the checkbox when using a checkbox. This leads to a problem with this plugin: it assumes that the checkbox isn't a multi plugin and its value is always the default value.

I did the following patch to get it working:

             elType = el.attr("type");
             multi  = contains(multiInputs, elType);
-            if (!multi) { return el.val(); }
+            if (!multi && (el.length < 1 || $(el[0]).attr('type') != 'hidden')) { return el.val(); }

             if (elType === "radio") { return el.filter(":checked").val(); }

-            if (elType === "checkbox") {
-                checkVals = $.map(el.filter(":checked"), function (checkbox) {
-                    return $(checkbox).val();
-                });
-                return checkVals;
+            checkVals = $.map(el.filter(":checked"), function (checkbox) {
+                return $(checkbox).val();
+            });
+
+            if($(el[0]).attr("type") == 'hidden' && checkVals.length === 0) {
+                checkVals = [$(el[0]).val()];
             }
+
+            return checkVals;
         }

         // Event handler for when a toggling element changes value.

This is not the most beautiful solution, but at least it works.

Hi @jrsinclair ,
I was impressed by your website when I was landed on it by Google search, so I'm curious what's the theme/tool/lib you use for rendering it .. Or is it written by yourself ?
Also, would you like to share it or make it open sourced ? I guess people will like it

Cheers.
