Q: If someone fails to complete a required field they are brought to a button for them to click to return to the form. The problem is that when it returns to the form all the data that had been input is lost and the user has to start all over again.... an infuriating task, while just pressing the back button would have retained previously input data. How do I make that button return them to the form without losing previously entered data?
A: You can insert some code into your form to maintain form content until it is sent. See the Maintaining Form Content section (4) in the help file for details. This has the benefit that it will work with all browsers, all the time, as opposed to some browsers some of the time. Alternatively if you wish to use the browser back button method then you can set up your own message pages and tell the user to click the browser back button.
