Controlling Which Form Fields to Save


Quick Tips provided by Inside Microsoft FrontPage, a ZD Journals publication. Click here for a free issue Non-MS link. To receive the Tip of the Week in e-mail, click here Non-MS link.

When you inspect the results file of a FrontPage form you've created, you may discover a field name called "B1" that has no data associated with it. This "phantom" field is actually your form's Submit button. While passing this field name to your form's results file shouldn't cause you any problems, you can easily instruct FrontPage not to pass the name to the data file.

To do so, right-click within the dashed area of the form on your page in the FrontPage Editor and select Form Properties... from the context menu. In the resulting dialog box, click the Options... button. Then, in the Options For Saving Results Of Form dialog, click the Saved Fields tab. Delete B1 (and any other unwanted fields), then click OK twice to return to your page, and save your page.
