I have an issue with people clicking the Submit button multiple times. How do
I force the form to reset after the Submit button is pressed?

You might want to look into using a custom confirmation
page (see Front Page help). On that page you could thank
them for their input and give them proper instructions in
order to avoid this annoyance.

Thanks Rick... I am inserting a custom confirmation page... they are either
pressing the Submit button multiple times before the Confirmation Page comes
up or they are using the Back button after the Confirmation Page is
presented, and then pressing the Submit button again.

I've run into webpages where you are prevented from going back... do you
know how to do that? How can I prevent them from going back to the "submit"
page?

thanks rick... I am inserting a custom confirmation page. But I think they
either are pressing the Submit button multiple times BEFORE the confirmation
page is inserted OR they are pressing theh Back button after the Confirmation
Page is presented and then pressing the Submit button again.

I've been on webpages where I was prevented from using the Back button. I
would press the Back button but my prior page was not displayed... only the
current page. Do you know how to do that?

I do not personally know how to do this. I suspect that
it is not possible using the standard Front Page Form
component.

You might want to check with your host and see if they
support another form component which would be capable of
this functionality.
