problems with my text area in form

[Guest]

In my frontpage2003 form, when a user enters info into the text area, it is
saving it all into a Access database which I can view. However if the user
hits ENTER when typing their text, nothing below the ENTER is saved in the
form.
How would I fix this?

Also, I host my site through 1and1.com. They do not seem to support the
'email results' option for FP2003 forms. I would love to send my results to
an email when they are submitted. How? That is another can of worms though.

Any ideas are greatly appreciated!

Use validation (FP validation) to check required fields, and make sure
that the last field in the form is required. To set validation, right
click on a field, and choose Field Properties, and set validation
requirements in the property sheets.

For email, since you are using ASP, see

Hitting the [enter] key submits the form it is not a "Carriage Return" key
in the same way as a word processor.

Solution would be to make say the last field "required" using field
validation, so then it won't submit without the last field being filled in.
