About forms


    A form gives your viewers the opportunity to send you information. You can design forms to let viewers sign up for a newsletter, make purchases, and complete a questionnaire. You can use text fields, buttons, lists, and images in your form. You create the form in GoLive, but your Web server actually processes the information using a CGI script.

    All GoLive form elements fully support HTML 4.0 standards, including labels, tab order, and access keys--and are backward compatible with the HTML 3.2 specification. You can also add actions and events to your form.

    The appearance of your form may vary between computer platforms and Web browsers. With GoLive you can get predictable results if you place form elements in HTML tables, rather than on layout grids or directly on a page.
