Change Name

The InForm-Handler name is used for your identification purposes only. This name will not appear in your form or on any emails that your site visitors will receive. It is helpful in keeping track of individual InForm-Handlers, should you have more than one.

Success Page

Once site visitors have successfully submitted your form, they will be sent to a success page that you specify. The success page may either be a Fusion page on your current site or an external page.

If you choose a page on your current site, highlight the "Use a Fusion Page" radio button and double click the page from the site structure that appears in a new window. You must click on the "Submit New Success Page" button for this to be activated.

Be aware that the success page redirect relies on receiving a referring URL from the end-user. Therefore, you will not be sent to your success page if you test your form in Local Publish. Publish to the web and all will be fine.

Choosing a Fusion page as a success page is the only InForm setting which requires you to publish your site in order for the setting to become active.

If you choose to send the site visitors to a non-Fusion page, or even off your site completely, highlight the "Use an Absolute URL" radio button and enter the full URL for the page.

Required Fields

You can set one or more fields to be required. If the end-user fails to fill in values for these fields, the form will not be processed and an error message will be shown.

You must enter the field name exactly as it spelled on your web page. A unique error message shows up for each missing required field.

Once the required fields have been set up you can edit the settings or remove the required specification by clicking on the icons for each field.

Meaning of "Options" Icons

Note: If you have a field on your form named "email" and you set it up as being required, InForm will check to make sure that the user has submitted text that is in the format of an email address (such as containing one @ sign, etc.). If the email is not proper, an error message will be generated.

Error Message

The error message for your required fields can show up in one of two ways. Either as a popup box with an OK button, or as an HTML page.

In this example the error message is placed inside a font tag so as to make it red. You can paste in any HTML you like. InForm will create the error page by first inserting the header, then the error message, then the footer. If you use graphics or links on your error page, make sure you use absolute paths like http://www.blah.com/pic.gif. Relative links will not work because they will be relative to the coolmaps.com server.

Domain Security

For security, you can require that all your form submissions come from specified domains. If someone tries to submit a form from elsewhere, they will get an error message. Enter the domain that the form is on without the "http://" or the "www.". (If you enter your domain as www.yourdomain.com then a form submission from yourdomain.com will not be successful.)

You can enter up to five separate domains for your form. As long as all of the forms have the same fields then they will work fine. You can even make the forms different in appearance on other domains, as long as the field names are the same.

If no domains are entered, all domains will be accepted.
