creating Frontpage forms that work with all browsers

N

Natalie H

my forms created by the Frontpage form wizard will not submit properly if
people use any browser besides IE. Since many of my users are on macs and
not using IE at all, this is a significant problem. Can anyone tell me how I
might be able to edit my forms for better browser compatability? Thank you!

Please provide a URL to the form(s) with this issue, sine a form is run server-side and generally
work in all browsers.

The only way I can think of that a form would only work in IE, and in no
other browser, is if the form elements were placed in a VML text box.
The other browsers would see a *picture* of the form, not the form
itself.

As Thomas said, a link to the form page is the only way to be certain of
a solution.

Thomas,

So sorry for the delay in responding, and thank you for being willing to
help me with this issue. Here is an example of one of my forms:
www.seattlechurchplanting.com/CPN_Reg3.htm. If people complete it in other
browsers they never make it to my confirmation page and never get their
registration. Since many of my guys are on macs and never use IE, it gets
frustrating for all involved. Any help you can give is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Natalie

Remove the hyperlink from your submit button

<a href="CPNconfirm.htm"><INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit Form"></a>

should just be
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit Form">
