Making Sure Your Form Works

After you finish your form, you may as well check to see whether the darn thing works. Unfortunately, testing your form isn't as simple as previewing the page and filling out the fields.

Because forms require a form handler to be able to work, you must go a step further: You must call on the services of a Web server. To do so, you must publish your Web site and then preview and test the live version of the form. (For directions on how to publish your site, see Chapter 12.)
