[ Online Survey ]
The Online Survey lets visitors to your page vote in a survey of your
choice.
For
this tutorial, we assume that you know the bare essentials of
FrontPage. For basic help, take a look at the
Guest Counter Tutorial which has
a lot more detail.
This Dynamic Tool introduces the notion of "Templates".
Templates are the files you can use to customise the appearance
of the Dynamic Tools you use.
[Instructions for Notepad]
To get your Online Survey working as quickly as possible, simply follow
the step-by-step instructions listed below.
- Create
a new FrontPage page. Give the page a heading;
seems appropriate at this stage.
- Enter
some descriptive text, such as;
|
Click Here to vote in my survey.
Click Here to view the results of my survey.
|
|
Make the first 'Click Here' a hyperlink to
"/zisp/vote".
Make the second 'Click Here' a hyperlink to
"/zisp/vote_show".
- Now
save the web page (for now, call it "online_survey.html").
If you want to create a "hyperlink" door from your hall
(i.e. index.html) into this room, now is the time to do it.
- Next,
upload your new Online Survey workroom to your web site, open your
Internet browser, and view the page.
Try voting for a few different
categories, and watch the voting statistics change!
