Forms in FP2002.

[Guest]

Trying to produce a multi webpage form and have the results emailed to me.
Page one has contact info and one question, then a Submit button (or Clear),
next page the same. Seems I have to keep the form on one page, but it is so
large, need several pages to make it reasonable. help!

You can't use multiple-page forms with the Frontpage form handler. You
will need a thirdparty solution that specifically handles multiple page
forms - a script suitable for your server/host.

All I can suggest is to give the "illusion" of going to another page.

eg Have your form with fields as you want them, then put a "Next" button at
the foot of the first "page"
that actually links to a bookmark on the same page.

<input type="button" onclick=load.url('formpage.html#form2');">

or whatever the code is. You could just use a text link or image to do the
same thing linking to a simple bookmark on the page.

Anyway the point is, the form is one large form, and the "Next" links just
bring up the second and subsequent sections of the form, rather than loading
a new page outright.

Cool, sounds like a plan. I'll give that a try today. Thanks, Andrew.
