You can put a form field anywhere on the page where you can type text. On the Insert menu select Form Field and click the type of form field that you want. You can also create form fields using the Forms toolbar:
In FrontPage, you make a new form by creating a form field anywhere on the page outside of other forms. (To help you see the boundaries of forms, the FrontPage Editor can display them as dotted lines.)
To create a form, do the following:
You lay out a form the way you lay out text. To label a field, click to the left of the field and start typing: the field moves to the right to make room for the text. Press Enter to create a new line in a form. You can align the form fields using the Align Left, Center, and Align Right commands on the FrontPage Editor’s standard toolbar. To control a form’s layout more precisely, insert a table inside a form’s boundaries and use it to control the placement of form fields and labels.
Form fields have properties, including Width in Characters, which specifies the width of a text box field, Initial Value, which specifies the contents of a field when a user first sees it, and Initial State, which specifies whether some types of fields are selected by default. Each type of form field has a unique properties dialog box, in which you configure it. To open a field’s properties dialog box, double-click the field.
When you create a new form, FrontPage adds two Push Button fields to the form, one labeled “Submit” and the other labeled “Reset.”
