jquery.steps and validation not working - form content not visible (invisible)

6.1k views Asked by At

I already asked this question once, and got a few useful replies, marked it as answered and applied everything. It seemed like it worked, but sadly it doesnt.

The problem is: The forms within the different steps fields are empty. Well, I can't tell if every step is empty since I cant see and enter anything in the first step and therefore cant procede to the next step since the validations seems to be working.

I dont know why. I am sticking to the example given on the jquery steps page: http://www.jquery-steps.com/Examples#advanced-form

It's exaclty the same code BUT: My forms are empty. It looks like this: empty forms with jquery steps

My Code is:

.content doesn't appear to have any width (look at the tooltip in the upper right-hand corner of your last screenshot). Give it some width:

.wizard > .content {
    ...
    width: 100%;
}

I have included below CSS file from original Github source code:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/normalize.css">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="css/main.css">

And form is displayed in Chrome and IE.
