You can usa ASP or Cookies to store the information between pages....

and for ASP look at the Spooky's article..

Thanks for your reply. In checking out the explanation given, I realize the language used and the directions given are beyond my comprehension (I wish it could be described as if talking to a 10 year old instead of an experienced programmer).

I think I am over my head on this one.

Herman. with a FP form it doesn't require any programming at all:

In the confirmation page -> click Insert -> Go to Component -> click Comfirmation Field -> add the "name" field EXACTLY as you named it in the form itself. Whatever the visitor enters in that field will be at that spot on the confirmation page.

To clarify Gil's answer, use the Confirmation page template from the "New Page" option. Then insert the confirmation field as Gil instructed. Then make sure that on the form you select that page as your confirmation page under form options.

(You probably knew that, but I'm sure somebody out there didn't know.)

Looking at your example site, Gil's answer is much better for what you are trying to do....I tought you were trying to create a form spanning more than one page....

Gil,

Thank you for making it so simple, when I thought it was so complicated (JS, ASP...?).

It worked out well after some juggling

All the best
Herman
