    ShowAdd a check box

    1. Click in the form where you want to place the check box.

      If you are inserting a form field but have not already created a form, Microsoft FrontPage automatically creates a form area and inserts the field inside that form area. The form area appears as a dashed line when you are editing the page.

    2. On the Insert menu, point to Form, and then click Checkbox.
    3. On the form, beside the check box, type the label.

      You can give the site visitor the ability to select the check box by clicking the check box label.

      ShowHow?

      1. Select the text and the check box.
      2. On the Insert menu, point to Form, and then click Label.

    ShowSet the properties of a check box

    1. Double-click the check box.
    2. In the Name box, type a name to identify the check box.

      For your form to work correctly, you need to use a unique name for this form field.

    3. In the Value box, type the value to associate with this field.

      When the check box is selected, this value is returned with the form results, and is displayed on the default confirmation page. If the check box has not been selected, the group name is included, but the value is blank.

    4. Click Checked if you want the check box to be selected by default when a site visitor first opens the form.
    5. Click the Style button to access other options for formatting your form using cascading style sheets as an inline style.
