But the point Mat is that it is all on one page, and that is not a solution.
What it means is that it is one template, the user will click the next button and keep getting all these required fields and be confused as to where and why!! All it is doing is using anchors to go to the next step, big deal why not just have the form as one entire form to start with? -----Original Message----- From: Matt Robertson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 29 January 2002 4:13 PM To: CF-Talk Subject: RE: multi-page forms A required field (client side) would put a quick stop to that. Personally, I've found people dislike multipart forms... They want the opportunity to evaluate whether a kitchen-sink form is worth their time before beginning the process. In split-run tests I've run the big form has always had a higher completion rate over a multipart (where the user fills the form voluntarily). On this particular project I changed the rules and shortened the form dramatically, taking it to bare essentials needed to generate a price quote. Completion rate in the last five weeks rose to a solid average of 26% of all site visitors; hard for a graphic designer trying to apply their 'vision' to argue with. --Matt Robertson-- MSB Designs, Inc. http://mysecretbase.com ______________________________________________________________________ Get Your Own Dedicated Windows 2000 Server PIII 800 / 256 MB RAM / 40 GB HD / 20 GB MO/XFER Instant Activation � $99/Month � Free Setup http://www.pennyhost.com/redirect.cfm?adcode=coldfusionb FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists
