Hi Jon and welcome!
You can manually edit the code created by FP.
If you make a simple form, it looks like this :
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
</head>
<body>
<form method="POST" action="--WEBBOT-SELF--" onsubmit="return FrontPage_Form1_Validator(this)" language="JavaScript" name="FrontPage_Form1">
<!--webbot bot="SaveResults" u-file="_private/form_results.csv" s-format="TEXT/CSV" s-label-fields="TRUE" startspan --><input TYPE="hidden" NAME="VTI-GROUP" VALUE="0"><!--webbot bot="SaveResults" endspan i-checksum="43374" --><p>
<!--webbot bot="Validation" b-value-required="TRUE" --><input type="text" name="T1" size="20"><input type="submit" value="Submit" name="B1"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="B2"></p>
</form>
</body>
</html>
If you close this, then choose to open it in notepad, youll see different code :
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
</head>
<body>
<!--webbot BOT="GeneratedScript" PREVIEW=" " startspan --><script Language="JavaScript" Type="text/javascript"><!--
function FrontPage_Form1_Validator(theForm)
{
if (theForm.T1.value == "")
{
alert("Please enter a value for the \"T1\" field.");
theForm.T1.focus();
return (false);
}
return (true);
}
//--></script><!--webbot BOT="GeneratedScript" endspan --><form method="POST" action="_vti_bin/shtml.dll/new_page_1.htm" onsubmit="return FrontPage_Form1_Validator(this)" language="JavaScript" name="FrontPage_Form1" webbot-action="--WEBBOT-SELF--">
<!--webbot bot="SaveResults" U-File="_private/form_results.csv" S-Format="TEXT/CSV" S-Label-Fields="TRUE" startspan --><input TYPE="hidden" NAME="VTI-GROUP" VALUE="0"><!--webbot bot="SaveResults" i-checksum="43374" endspan --><p>
<!--webbot bot="Validation" B-Value-Required="TRUE" --><input type="text" name="T1" size="20"><input type="submit" value="Submit" name="B1"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="B2"></p>
</form>
</body>
</html>
As you see - the javascript error is now clear in the body.
However, to edit the code, you cannot have the web bot as it will overwrite any changes.
Remove the validation specific code (in notepad) and resave it :
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">
<meta name="GENERATOR" content="Microsoft FrontPage 5.0">
<meta name="ProgId" content="FrontPage.Editor.Document">
</head>
<body>
<script Language="JavaScript" Type="text/javascript"><!--
function FrontPage_Form1_Validator(theForm)
{
if (theForm.T1.value == "")
{
alert("Please enter a value for the \"T1\" field.");
theForm.T1.focus();
return (false);
}
return (true);
}
//--></script>
<form method="POST" action="_vti_bin/shtml.dll/new_page_1.htm" webbot-action="--WEBBOT-SELF--">
<!--webbot bot="SaveResults" U-File="_private/form_results.csv" S-Format="TEXT/CSV" S-Label-Fields="TRUE" startspan --><input TYPE="hidden" NAME="VTI-GROUP" VALUE="0"><!--webbot bot="SaveResults" i-checksum="43374" endspan --><p>
<input type="text" name="T1" size="20"><input type="submit" value="Submit" name="B1"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="B2"></p>
</form>
</body>
</html>
