Forms: FrontPage
2000
Create a Form
| You create a form by first
generating a form field.
Within that form field will go the entire form, i.e., both the questions you ask and the form elements, the box and button spaces where the user will supply responses. |
||
| There are two ways to create
a form in FrontPage 98.
You can choose Insert, Form from the main menu. A drop down menu appears. |
||
|
|
||
| Choose the form
element you desire from the menu. FrontPage 2000 will automatically
insert the form element inside a form field.
The form field will be delineated by a broken line. |
||
| Handle the Form | To specify how
you will gather and retrieve the information that you request in a form,
right click anywhere on the form and choose Form Properties
from the pop-up menu.
The Form Properties dialog box will appear. |

||
| In the Where to store
results section, choose the file or email address where you
want the form results to be sent.
You can also ask FrontPage 2000 to insert form results into a database. Or you can choose Send to other and specify a custom script to use to collect form data. Remember that your web site host server must be running FrontPage 2000 Server Extensions for the form handler to work. Consult your web site administrator for more information. |
