Event registration and in-line html

Jennifer Palmer · May 2013

in the classic event registration form you could do some in-line html in order to split up paragraphs and make certain words bold, etc. However, I just tried this with the new event registration form and was unable to get any results. Am I doing something incorrect or is the in-line html not an option with the new event registration part?

Hey Jennifer,

I've tried to do this too, and it doesn't work in the new event registration part. I'm changing this to an idea so we can consider the functionality.

As a workaround we can use some replace javascript, and put the event description in there. If we do it that way inline HTML will work.

This is a skeleton of the script I used for this before. If you have someone that knows a little bit of javascript they should be able to fill in the blanks properly for that.





Thanks!


Karen <script type="text&#47;javascript">
<br /><br/>Sys&#46;WebForms&#46;PageRequestManager&#46;getInstance()&#46;add_pageLoaded(function() {
<br /><br/>                $('[id*="partial ID goes here"]')&#46;html('new text goes here');
<br /><br/>});
<br /><br/><&#47;script><&#47;pre>

This definitely needs to become an idea, and the title should be "HTML doesn't render/process in Event Registration Part (Classic)". The only way to add a link is to add it to the title, but most events need a link in the description, and we can't use HTML in event descriptions. We just started using BBNC, and I've already had two events where I needed a link in the description.

I found a workaround, but HTML should still be enabled in the event description. If I exclude the first step of registration, the event description now shows up on the formerly second step (Prices), and HTML does work.
