form confirmation page + receiving email with form data - 7/21/2005 16:44:11   
Two new questions! :)

1. Is there a way to modify the Confirmation page you get after pushing the submit button? I like it, I just want to center it and change the colour of the background. I would rather do that than create a new page all together.

2. Is there a way to receive the form that people filled out in a more organized, user friendly format? I named all the form fields, so its functional and possible to use, but still uncomfortable. The reason I ask is because I have 4 seperate order forms, with many questions on each one. It can get confusing. I tried changing the email results so they are sent in HTML or XML format, but that didn't do anything. Any suggestions?

Thank You! :)

- Yes you can do this, in fact, open up your confirmation page (if you do not have one, create a new page), then modify the new confirmation page you created. Now you need to tell your form to use that new confirmation page. To do this, goto your form, then right-click and go to form properties, and select the confirmation page tab. Browse tot he location of the confirmation page and save your changes. Btw one of the users here runs a great frontpage form website, this link might help as well: Setting Up a Confirmation Page

- The email format that the results are sent in cannot be modified. This is one of the draw backs with FrontPage's easy to use forms. Small price to pay imo to have such an easy to use form system.
