Incidentally, the web visitor will receive a basic
confirmation page generated by Serif Web Resources to
acknowledge successful receipt of form data. As a useful
tip you can create and assign your very own
acknowledgment web page to be used instead of this basic
page. Your own page is just like any other web page so you
can add your own information, and design the page in the
same style and appearance as the rest of your site.
To add your own acknowledgement page:
1. Right-click on the form (must submit data via
Serif Web Resources) and choose Edit Form
Properties....
2. Switch to the Hidden Fields tab, click the Add...
button and add the word "redirect" to the Name
field and your intended target URL with http://
prefix (i.e., the web address of your own
acknowledgement page) in the Value field.
3. Click OK. The new web page will display on the
next form submission.
No personal data will be stored on Serif web
servers. All form data is redirected in real time.
This option is for experienced web developers with
scripting expertise.
To set up a local script file:
1. With the Script file icon enabled, add a Form
name.
2. Navigate to your local script file, typically a .cgi,
.pl, .dll, or .exe file with the Browse... button.
3. Check Embed to include the script within the
site. If unchecked, the script file will be
unconnected to the site (any updates to the script
will be invisible to the site).
