Inserting web component into form fields

[Michael Roper]

I am designing a site using Front Page which will enable
visitors to select a product and calculate their own
estimated cost before requesting a formal quote. I have
designed an on screen calculator using an Excel
spreadsheet which has been inserted via the Web Component
menu. The spreadsheet is not connected to a data base,
and the prices are merely changed using function formulas
which allow for different prices for different quantities
entered in the calculator. However, I would also like
visitors to then be able to submit their calculations by
email for confirmation and issue of a formal quote. I
have attempted to include the calculator in an enquiry
form field without success.
Any suggestions please?

Hi Stefan

Thanks for your help. My knowledge of script is very
sketchy, but I'll check it out.

Regards

Michael
