I'm trying to figure out how to create a custom confirmation page, so that when a user enters data on an active server page, it confirms that info when they click Submit. I can only get so far with FrontPage 2003, and then I cannot find the menu item to actually place the field. Help?

Are you using the FP database component?

Hi Curt,

By confirm you mean it is not saved until the confirmation page is
submitted? If so, you'll need to hand code the pages.

Click the submit button on your form to select it
right click select Form properties from the pop up menu
click options
click the tab marked Saved Fields
Copy the fields you see there to notepad ... then you can copy and paste
into the confirmation fields in your comfirmation form at the correct points
..

I presume this is what you mean?

Or reading again maybe not ... you want the confirmation field menu or icon?

Tools | Cusomise | commands tab | on the left hand pane select insert | on
the right hand pane scroll down and select the confirmation filed icon and
drag to the menu bar at the top of frontpage .. then close the customise
box. which is easier in the long run

or

Insert | web component | Advanced Controls | confirmation Field

I think that's what you want?
