Form Question

S

Shirley

I'm creating an order form for a client. It works great, but now what she
wants is for the form to hold the data even after a customer submits an
order....I suppose what she is thinking is that they might continue browsing
the site and want to order something else.
Is there a way using FP2003 to set the form to hold the user data?

Open the form in a "new window" and make sure it has a note to tell the visitor to not "Close" the
page until they are done.

Have you looked at any shopping cart programs.???

Also, if you're going to conduct financial transactions via the internet, you really need to use a
secure server.

you probably want a 'shopping cart' type application - but this uses complicated
databases, cookies and whatever to 'remember' the order.

in the hyperlink dialague box, click 'target...' button then choose "new window".

You can't do it
You would need to open the order_form.htm in a new window from a hyperlink within a page, not the nav bar
Your order page is on your nav bar, and you can't target elements of the nav bar




| Not sure where to set up the 'new window'...am posting the link...
