Q: Is there a way to save my work? Not the php file, but the work I've done in creating the Form1 file in Internet explorer. I have had to start over a few times because I accidentally closed Internet Explorer thinking it was just a web page. Also, if I want to add categories to it later, do I have to start from the beginning? Isn't there a way to save it?

A: The processing code variables are saved when you click Save Variables (in the Required Section). For the form code you can simply copy the form code to a text editor ie Notepad and save it. If you save the Form Page Layout Code Only this is the code that determines the form layout and can be reused, see the Existing Form in the menu. You can also edit directly in the text editor if you want and then reuse it later.

Q: I have checked the help file and can not find the solution to my problem, 2 things are happening. 1st. when I click on my continue button page one with all required boxes filled. I don't go directly to my page two, I go to the Required Field Missing for a Field on page two, should not I go to page two and given the opportunity to enter data in those boxes.

A: If you have a required field set in the processing code then it expects the field to be delivered to it when it is called, ie the first page is processed by the second page processing code so the required fields set in the second page processing code are those that relate to the page that calls it ie the first page. This process is followed through the pages ie each page calls the following page until the last page, which generally calls its self. If you what to have specific required variables in the last page that are not from previous pages you will need to set the last page to call a separate processing code so those variables can be checked. So basically you need to adjust your Required Field settings to match the page that is calling the processing code. I can always help when I know what is or is not happening.
