Online submission form without Front Page

[janerogan]

Hi,

I don't have Front Page and I want to design an online submission form
that someone else will upload onto a website for me. I can design it
in Access as a database but will the person who is doing all the
technical side of things easily be able to add this to the website as
an online submission form?

Thanks

Access forms and web page forms are different things. If you wish to design
a form in EW, w.o. FPSE, you'll need to use .Net

No, the Access form will not be available at all, only the data. You can
design the form within FrontPage, just set the form action to send to other
instead of using the FP Server extensions. If the web server is a Microsoft
web server, then you should have a send to database option if you have the
form with a .asp extension. The send to database does not use the FP Server
Extensions, it uses the Active Server Pages technology which is part of the
web server.

Mark,

Have been trying to figure this out myself. So if I understand, you can
design the form in FP, then save as .ASP. Where would you find the "Send to
database" option you mentioned. I can't find it in the FP menu.

In my case, I also need a similar form where submit would email the form
responses in a .CSV on a site that does not have FPE. Would I need to write
ASP code in the submit to accomplish both the writing to a CSV and the
emailing, or is there an easier method?

Thanks for the help in advance.
