Form Confirmation

G

Guest

I want to add a confirmation page to a form using FrontPage 2003. Because the
hosting company uses Unix and does not have all FrontPage extensions
installed, I had to use HTML to write the form. When I right click on the
form properties to look for a name so I can link my confirmation page, there
is no name.
Any ideas?

Unless you have created the form in FP and are processing the form via the FP Form Handler, you will
not see any FP related options. You will have to learn what server-side scripting is being used to
process the form, and then learn how to re-direct to a confirmation page, etc.

You need to create your own custom confirmation page (use the Confirmation page template)
- then browse to it from the form properties options dialog

I tried that, but when I look in options dialog, I have no confirmation page
but only a box with Options for Custom Form Handler with Action, Method and
Encoding Type.

Only available if you are sending the html form to the FP SE and have FP EE enabled in Tools Page Options Authoring
