I am using Front Page 2000 - My questin is in regards to
forms - When designing a web page with severak one-line
text boxes, is there any way to make specific tex
boxes "required fields"? - In other words - the person
entering information on this web-page would have to enter
information into the "required fields" in order to
continue. Thanks in advance for your help.
 
Select field, right click, form field validation

Yes.

Right click on them and look for "form field validation"

There is a whole slew of things you can require or not in there.

Validation typically uses JavaScript, so it won't work on all platforms, but
it will on most.
 
You can make it a validation field so that if
they hit submit and the field is blank they will
receive a pop-up telling them to complete the field.
Right click the form field, select Form Field
properties and then click Validate.

Mark,

Double click the text box, Click Validate | Check Required | Click OK
