When you create an online form, FrontPage automatically generates a confirmation page. This page, which appears after the user clicks the Submit button, lists the data he or she entered and includes a link back to the form.

If you don't like the standard page, you can create your own and instruct FrontPage to display your custom page instead.

With your form page open in the FrontPage Editor and your mouse cursor positioned within the dashed line area of the form, right click your mouse and select the Forms Properties dialog from the resulting dropdown menu.

Then, in the Form Properties dialog, click the Options button, and in the resulting Options for Saving Results of Form dialog box, select the Confirmation Page tab and enter the URL of your confirmation page.

By the way, the URL you enter can be for any page, not just a true confirmation page.
