Creating Checkout Pages 117
Notice on the page under the Shipping Information header, the checkout box that
when checked enters the billing address in the shipping address fields. This is a
very common and convenient feature. An Interaction under Forms Interelement
category is used between a billing address, shipping address, and checkbox.
The other interactions on the page are mainly for validation. You can look at each
validation interaction in the QuickStoreComplete file. There are some important
points and tips you need to know about validation and inserting user information.
Some Tips:
Name elements appropriately so when you are applying Interactions you can
easily identify which is which.
For insert pages, make sure edit boxes submit only to the recordset (and not to
the page) so that the recordset content does not show up on the published page.
To make sure this is the case, select the edit box, then in the Attributes Sheet,
for Content, select Recordset and in the Content dialog, check the Submit
only option.
Use client-side Validation using the Form Validations Interactions to ensure
proper and correct information.
