248 Adding Dynamic Content

In addition, hidden fields can be added by right-clicking on the entire form and

selecting Edit Form Properties.... The dialog's Hidden Fields tab allows for

input of any number of hidden fields.

Editing form controls

Each form control type (buttons, text field, etc.) has different characteristics and

therefore different values for editing. Values can be changed as you create the

form or at a later time after the control has been added to the form.

The Form Wizard's Edit Control... button lets you modify the control during

form creation. Alternatively, the control can be edited later by right-clicking on

the form control on the web page and choosing the Edit option, e.g. Edit Text

Box.

Submission of forms

All forms have one thing in common—they must be submitted to allow data to

be collected. To do this you can either create a Submit Button unaided or more

usually use the ready-made button in the Form Wizard. The button needs to be

present on the form and is typically used with a Reset button to clear all form

controls of data.

Form data submission is possible via several methods.

No action

Form data is not submitted. This option is useful if you

want to temporarily disable data collection or if you haven't

yet set up scripting or Serif Web Resources. At a later time

you can edit the form (right-click then choose Edit Form

Properties...) and select a valid submission method.

address

Use this option to bypass the usual POST/GET submission

methods. When the Submit button is pressed the web

visitor's default email program is launched. The form data

(passed in a single string) is added to the email body and is

ready to be sent to the configured email destination.

Especially useful if there is no local or remote scripting in

place.

This is an unsecure submission method—any

private or confidential information will be not be

encrypted.
