Overriding the Gravity Forms submit button

Marinus Klasen

I recently setup a Gravity Forms form that generates a zip download on submission. Whenever someone hits ‘submit’, a ZIP is generated based on user values. This works by hooking into gform_confirmation and returning a header('content-disposition: attachment; filename=file.zip');.

The entry is created, the zip download starts but.. the form becomes unusable afterwards. You cannot generate a zip file a second time since the submit button is disabled.

Well, there’s an easy fix for that. The snippet below overrides the submit event listener and makes sure that it’s always submitted.
