Building the New Record Reply page

The New Record Reply page is the confirmation page that is presented to the Web audience after they have added a record. You can create the message in this page (for example, "Thank you. You have successfully created a new record.") in this page as well as provide links back to other pages in your site using the Claris Home Page editing tools.

To provide the Web audience with information about adding a new record:

  1. Create a new blank page.
  2. Choose FileMaker Form Library from the View menu (Windows) or the Window menu (Macintosh).
  3. In the NEW RECORD section of the library, select the entry for Displaying record data under the New Reply Page section.
  4. Drag the tags (for example, drag FMP-Field) you want to include in the New Record Reply page.
  5. Type supporting text next to the FMP-Field icon.

  6. Save your New Record reply page.

The name of the New Record Reply page should correspond to the filename used in all files that refer to it. For example, the New Record page might have filename "new_record.htm," and it may refer to the New Record Reply page filename, "new_record_reply.htm."
