Collecting data using FrontPage forms-Can FrontPage determine val.

[Guest]

Our organization uses mass emails to contact our members with newsletters,
announcements, etc. Our members register online using a Front Page form.
Many times, members enter email addresses incorrectly, or enter invalid email
addresses. Is it possible to check the email address during the registration
process and display an error message if the email address is not valid or
entered incorrectly?
Thanks!

No. However what you need to do is to use a server-side scripting solution to process the
registration process where each user as they sign up is sent an email that they must reply to that
makes their account active, etc. This can not be done with the FP Form Handler.
