Habitat Alert site In this section, you created two forms for the main page in the Find section of the Habitat Alert site. This page can later be the basis of a nested template (if needed) to build more pages for the resources listed in the jump menu. The forms in this page will later be powered by ColdFusion. Pages that display search results or resources will be saved using the .cfm or .cfml extension.

find/index.htm act/register.htm | Basically, you developed forms that can later be powered by the server- side technology of your choice. You added a form to use as a search engine. You added a form to collect registration data for visitors that want to receive an e-mail version of the newsletter. You added another form as a Jump Menu that can be static or set up to be dynamically populated. Setting up forms ahead of time allows them to be approved and then later developed aspart of a web application to speed up workflow and site development. | A form requires an action and method to work with a server-side technology. In this case, you'll set these in Chapter 48 to reference a ColdFusion template. |
