Re: Front Page Forms and Confirmation Page Q's



You must set the page to #2, then publish the site to a server that has the FP extensions via FP's
http mode.

I have a page on my FP 2003 created site with a form on it and a confirmation page. When the form
is filled, the user clicks the submit button and I am supposed to be email the data from the form
and the user is supposed to be taken/sent to a confirmation page that basically says, "Thank you,
NAME, for your order for your MODEL." The confirmation form is supposed to retrieve and insert the
real name data field info and real model number data field info from the form and insert them into
the appropriate location in the confirmation page.

My question is what page I am supposed to select in the Forms dialog on the forms option page
(Form > Form Properites then Options > Confirmation Page tab)?

1. If I point it to the version of the file located on the server, for example
http://www.newwebsite1/confirmation.html, the customer and I just see "Thank you, NAME, for your
order for your MODEL" but the individualized field data does NOT appear.

2. If I select the version of the page located on my hard drive, for example c:\my web
files\newwebsite1\confirmation.html, then the form will display the client's correct name and
model number field data on the confirmation page they see online after submission BUT the
confirmation page will also sometimes display field data for other orders that have already been
placed! This unwanted information will appear at the end of the page like it was added on. The
actual confirmation page on the web server gets rewritten with this information added at the very
bottom of the page.

I had my page set at #1 for a long time and it seemed to work. Now it doesn't or I am just going
crazy.

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
Doug
