Forms - not recieving all input information

[Linda Ing]

Hi

I have created a form successfully in Frontpage 2002.

I have set it up so that the data i recieve is sent to an
html file (formatted text)

Anyway i have tried my form out on several computers but
when i look back into my results (html) file i dont get
the following results - they are left blank

- the checkboxes
- and only 1 of the text boxes

no matter what type of information i put in the text box,
its just does not display in my results file....its funny
as this is only happening to one of the text boxes, the
other one works fine.

nor the same with the checkboxes i have a question which
can have multiple answers...but these dont show up in my
results file.

can you please help (im close to tearing my hair out) as i
have tried everything and have a tight deadline

cheers

Linda

Have you made sure that both text boxes and the check boxes are inside the
<form> </form> tags if you look at it in html or code view.

It's not hard to place one outside of them by mistake, and they won't work
that way.

thanks steve

but yes they are all inside a form tag
.....i actually got the text box to work (dont ask me how)
its just working now.....

.....but i dont have the checkboxes working....like if i
select 2 or more checkboxes as my answer the results just
show the first one....

mmmm...any ideas?

would it have something to do with the value of the box?

still not sure...

Right click the check box select Form Field properties, and enable Multiple
select.

Hi Steve

I dont have that option -
when i right click the check box and go to form field
properties i get the check box propertie but nothing which
asks me about enable multiple

more like - name, value, inital state, tab order, then the
style button and Ok, cancel button

any idea?

in the check box property box i entered a different value
for each check box
