Form Fieldsets collapse and expand

Hello, I've been trying to see if we can add an option on the form fieldset to expand and collapse as we click on the fieldset. Is there anyone who has tried doing this? can help us with this request.

No one has actually shown any code, I’ve noticed. 😉

 

You’d do it like this:

MktoForms2 :: <legend> as toggle

 

This is essentially making <fieldset><legend> elements act like <details><summary> does natively.

 

I’m in no way vouching for the UX here, of course. You’d probably want to add additional JS to leave a fieldset in the open state if a value has been filled in. And if any fields are required, you need to open their containing fieldset in onValidate (or else the person will have no idea why the form doesn’t submit!).

    This is not a native form setting wherein you can show or hide fields in the fieldset using a toggle, but I'm sure with a bit of customization using JavaScript and a bit CSS, you can certainly pull this off.

    Hi Darshil, would it work to add custom JavaScript and CSS on the Marketo Form level? As we are not using the Marketo Landing page.

    Yes, it's possible to add custom JavaScript and CSS directly to a Marketo form, even if you're not using a Marketo landing page.

    Remember that any customization involves potential risks, and it's crucial to thoroughly test in different environments to ensure compatibility and proper functionality.

      Hi Nihal,

      Can you elaborate on your requirement.

      If your requirement is to show some additional form fields based on the input of a particular field then YES this can be achieved by using Visibility Rules. You can get details on how to set visibility rule here.

       

      If your requirement is something for accordion functionality you can refer to this article which might be helpful for you.
