Front Page Forms

[Dana]

How do I format Front Page Forms output to look like an actual form
(formatted) instead of just a list of Labels and answers down the left side
of the page?

You write your own form handler in whatever language your host
supports (asp,asp.net, PHP,Perl/CGI etc.)
Cannot be done using FP extensions form handler.

If your intention is that YOU receive the form formatted
like the actual form, then the answer provided by Ronx is
correct.

If you want the user filling out the form to be able to
print out a copy of the form formatted like the actual
form, then look into Confirmation pages (see Front Page
help).

With a custom confirmation page, the Front Page forms
handler will display the submitted data in whatever
format you want instead of the decidely ugly format
provided as a default. You could add a message to this
page telling the user to use their browser to print a
hard copy of their inputs for their records.

Can you then tell me (and thanks much for getting me this far) how to then
send that "formatted" output on to a third party? ..d.g...

If the server supports ASP and CDOSYS, then see
