I have used the form wizard with FP2003 to create a form that will then
email me the results. When you press the submit button, it displays the
entires the user entered. Is there any way to have it automatically return
to the previous page after, say, 5 seconds?

Thanks.

In form properties you have to designate
a "confirmation" page. It can be any page you
designate.

I knew that. What I'm trying to have it do is automatically return to a
page after a certain amount of time. So once the user presses submit, I'd
like it to display the information, and then automatically go back to the
index.htm page after 5 seconds or so.

Haven't seen anywhere in the properties that you can set something like that
up.

Place a "meta refresh" tag between the head tags
in the page that displays after submit is pressed,
that then automatically opens the other page in 5 seconds:

<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="5; URL=http://www.yourpage.com/">

Will open yourpage.com in 5 seconds
Change yourpage.com the page you want opened.
CONTENT="5" is the time in seconds.

Just put this info between your <head> and <head/> tags of
the returned page:

<meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="5;URL=index.htm">

This assumes the index.htm page is in the same folder as
the returned page. CHange the 5 to a higher number for
more seconds.
