Building an Insert Record Page Tutorial 59

3 In the Site panel, double-click the insertLocation document to open it.

The document opens in the Document window.

Add form objects

A table and some of the form fields have already been added to this page. A red, dashed rectangle

appears in the document, this is the form boundary. Dreamweaver automatically inserts a form

boundary in a document when you insert a form object.

Now you’ll add the remaining form fields for the insert page—three text fields, a list/menu field, a

submit button, and a reset button.

You’ll also provide labels for form fields. Naming the fields makes it easier for you to identify the

fields you are working with later when you connect the form fields to the database fields.

We’ll begin by looking at one of the existing form fields.

1 Open the Property inspector (Window > Properties), if it isn’t already open.

2 Move the pointer to the top-right cell, click the form field to select it.

The Property inspector updates displaying the form field properties.

The Name field contains the form object’s name, and the Char Width field sets the field’s width

to 30 characters. You’ll update these same two fields in the text fields you add to the form.

3 In the document, place the insertion point in the table cell to the right of the State or Country

label, then do one of the following to insert a text field:

• In the Insert bar, click the Forms tab, then click the Text Field button (second from the left) or

drag it from the Insert bar to the table cell.

• Choose Insert > Form Objects > Text Field

The text field form object is inserted in the document.
