Please can anyone assist with the following? (I'm sure its easy but not for some!)

I've created a form using FrontPage 2000 for visitors to complete certain details. What I'm trying to accomplish is for them to click on the submit button and certain variables/parameters are transfered to another "Confirmation" page for them to be checked before finally submitting them as correct. The reason for this is to give the visitor the opportunity to make any amendments before they actually "SUbmit" their details. I am ok with the functionality of Frontpage but have no idea about passing variables/parameteres from one html form to another (or page to page as the case may be)

I am using a standard ISP with FrontPage Server Extensions available and working

Thank you in anticipation of your replies

hmm...i don't know a way using just html, though, there is much i do not know, so don't count it out. but you could use asp if your serverr suports it... for example:

<form method=&quot;post&quot;>
<form name=&quot;formname&quot;>
</form>

this is to show that my example uses post. and to get the values:

<%=request.form(&quot;formname&quot;)%>

this will print the value of the form without doing any other procesing.
 
Hi TheocraticMind
Thanks for taking the time to reply. I'm still a bit confused though. Perhaps I can explain. If you were to visit a form I've created on my website and required to enter certain details such as:

Name: mvarname
Address: mvaraddress
Telephone: mvartelephone
etc etc

What I require is for these details to be passed to another page on my website for the &quot;Visitor&quot; to check before actually hitting the old &quot;Submit&quot; button
This could like:

Name: Keepingbusy
Address: Wales, UK
Telephone: 123456789

I hope this makes sense and I do apologise if this info sounds a bit simple!

Look forward to any replies When everything else is said and done, there will be nothing else to say or do! God Bless everyone....
 
I forgot to mention, there is no requirement for any printing When everything else is said and done, there will be nothing else to say or do! God Bless everyone....
