The Conversion , Value Format , and Display Function options can be used to enable certain form processing
behavior. See "Form Field Conversion Functions" on page 301 and "Form Field Display Formatting Functions" on

selecting this check box is easier. Using this option is recommended for hidden fields, particularly those related to
security, such as role ID or expiration date.

must match the preliminary value provided for a field during pre-registration.

If a preliminary value was provided for the field but the guest’s entered value does not need to match case or all
characters, choose

use random usernames, and each visitor’s entry in that field would not need to match exactly.
l
If a preliminary value was provided for the field and the guest’s entered value must match case or all characters,
choose
Guest must supply field (match case) from the drop-down list. If the guest’s entry does not successfully
match the preregistered value, the account registration will not succeed. For example, if a list of email addresses
