[quote author="Pygon" date="1193432557"]should work with:
Code:
echo "<script type=\"text/javascript\">enable_button()</script>"

hey guys can you help me with this?
i have a simple sign up form..when the user submits the form and there is still a validation error, i want the submit button to be enabled.the submit button was disabled on load fyi.

the code above doesnt seem to work...[/quote]

hi,

you probably have already solved this problem but i'd like to share my experience for others who had the same problem.

i think the problem has to do with where the error_string shows up. if you write it somewhere inside the form (right after the opening &lt; form &gtWink, it disables the buttons (submit/reset/etc).

i had the same problem just now when i placed the "echo $this->validation->error_string;" show up inside the form. when i moved it outside of the form, the buttons become enabled again without any need to make additional scripts.

hth.
