Form will only open one time in a lightbox

So when I click on the Request Measurement button on this page the for will open in a light box but if I close it and try to reopen it the (<form id="mktoForm_1640"></form>) html will be stripped out.

Here is the URL: https://lp.datacolor.com/ITMA-2019.html

Any help is appreciated.

Hey Pat-

It looks like you're running Bootstrap4 on this template and it might make more sense to leverage Bootstrap for the modal part and just put your form into that instead. Here's a link to more info on the Bootstrap modal: https://getbootstrap.com/docs/4.0/components/modal/ - there's copy/paste code there. This'll divorce the functionality of the lightbox and the form so you're more able to control from the modal (content/styling) without any kind of form (script) conflicts -- and it might help control the width of the lightbox as well.

If you close it after filling it out? Or close it by clicking the ⓧ?

In what browser (include browser version and OS)? This isn't expected behavior when merely closing the lightbox.

OS + Chrome version?

CrossBrowserTesting recording of form load

Make sure you don't have any browser plugins or anything else interfering with normal operation.

So after some more testing it looks like it's only not working on a mac in the Chrome browser.
