JS

JavaScript

function results() {
    var firstname = document.getElementById("firstname").value;
    var lastname = document.getElementById("lastname").value;
    var location = document.getElementById("location").value;
    
    document.getElementById('my-form').innerHTML = "Thank you "+ firstname +" for checking in.";
    document.getElementById('my-form').style.fontFamily = 'Manrope', sans-serif;
    document.getElementById('my-form').style.color = 'white'
}

What I have tried:

<input type="submit" class="sm-form-button" onclick="return false;"></button>

Add "return" to onsubmit

onsubmit="return results ()

Have your function return false

JavaScript

function results() {

var firstname = document.getElementById("firstname").value;
var lastname = document.getElementById("lastname").value;
var location = document.getElementById("location").value;

document.getElementById('my-form').innerHTML = "Thank you "+ firstname +" for checking in.";
document.getElementById('my-form').style.fontFamily = 'Manrope', sans-serif;
document.getElementById('my-form').style.color = 'white';

return false;

}
