Create a form

Some of the content in this topic may not be applicable to some languages.

When you insert a form, Microsoft FrontPage inserts a rectangular area outlined with a dashed line that contains a Submit and a Reset button. Inside this rectangular area, you can add text and form fields, such as text boxes, option buttons, check boxes, drop-down boxes, and push buttons.

To create a form, do one of the following in Page view:

Create a form on your own

  1. On the Insert menu, point to Form, and then click Form.
  2. Add form fields.

    How?

    On the Insert menu, point to Form, and then select the fields you want to add to your form.

Create a form using a wizard

  1. On the File menu, point to New, and then click Page or Web.
  2. In the New Page or Web task pane, under New from template, click Page templates.
  3. On the General tab, click Form Page Wizard, and then click OK.
  4. Follow the on-screen instructions to complete the form.

Note   To test the functionality of your form, you must first publish your web site to a web server running either the FrontPage Server Extensions or SharePoint Team Services from Microsoft. Ask your web server administrator or Internet Service Provider whether this software is installed on your web server. Once the web site is published, click Preview in Browser Preview in Browser button to test the form.
