Submit Button Question

[BobV]

I am using FrontPage 2002 and my web hosting firm has the FrontPage
extensions installed.

Question:
I have a webpage with a form on it where I request certain user information
before allowing the visitor to go to the next page. I have a standard Submit
button on this page, and I have entered the URL for my custom confirmation
page. However, what happens is that when the Submit button is pressed the
visitor is taken to a default confirmation page. From there they have to
press a link that says "Return to the form" and then they are then taken to
my customized confirmation page.

What do I have to do in FrontPage to have the visitor taken directly to my
custom confirmation page when the Submit button is pressed, rather than
first to a default confirmation page? What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
Bob V

Where did you enter the URL for the confirmation page??
It needs to be entered in form properties.

If you made it a hyperlink with the submit button, it will not work, and "could" break
your form.

Steve:

I entered the URL in the form properties field by using the Browse button
and selecting the custom confirmation page.

Hi Bob,

A URL for the form page might help. Make sure you aren't using the same page
for validation failure.
