To add an HTML form to a search page, complete the following procedure.

1 Open the search page or a new page, and select Insert > Form > Form.

Anemptyformiscreatedonthepage.YoumightneedtoenableInvisibleElements(View>VisualAids>Invisible

Elements) to see the form’s boundaries, which are represented by thin red lines.

2 Add form objects for users to enter their search parameters by selecting Form from the Insert menu.

Form objects include text fields, menus, options, and radio buttons. You can add as many form objects as you want

to help users refine their searches. However, keep in mind that the greater the number of search parameters on the

search page, the more complex your SQL statement will be.

3 Add a Submit button to the form (Insert > Form > Button).

4 (Optional) Change the label of the Submit button by selecting the button, opening the Property inspector

(Window > Properties), and entering a new value in the Value box.

Next, you’ll tell the form where to send the search parameters when the user clicks the Submit button.

5 Select the form by selecting the <form> tag in the tag selector at the bottom of the Document window, as the

following image shows:

6 In the Action box in the form’s Property inspector, enter the filename of the results page that will conduct the

database search.

7 In the Method pop-up menu, select one of the following methods to determine how the form sends data to the

server:

• GET sends the form data by appending it to the URL as a query string. Because URLs are limited to 8192 characters,

don’t use the

GET method with long forms.

• POST sends the form data in the body of a message.

• Default uses the browser’s default method (usually GET).

The search page is done.
