Comments on How to Adapt this Form for Use on Your Site

Open this page in an HTML editor, such as Netscape's Composer. In order to use this comment form on your KORRnet website, you need to modify a couple of the tags. If you are using Composer, the form tags will look like little yellow "tags." If you are using a word processor or some other editor that shows the code for the tags, you'll see the tags as text. Either way you can edit the tags so that the form will work on your site. Please refer to my forms page for more information on using forms on KORRnet, click here. Also, I made a user survey form with more form elements on it that you may use.

You will need to edit the second and eighth tags, that is, the "recipient" tag and the "return_link_url" tag.

So, if you are using Composer (if not, see the rest of the notes below), right click on the second tag and select HTML Tag Properties from the pop up menu (Mac, hold down the mouse button on the tag to display the menu). Change the email address to your email address.

Now, right click on the eighth tag and select HTML Tag Properties from the pop up menu. Replace the URL with the page you want users to return to after they submit their comments.

You can modify some of the other tags in the same way, but the form should work once you put it up on your site.

More Notes

Modify the HTML "code" if you are using a word processor. I put the changes that must be made in bold below.

The code for the form above looks like this:
