Adding a Reset button

Adding a Reset button
You can add buttons to your form in at least two ways. The first method is to create an
image of a button and link it to one or more actions. The second method is to use the
Submit or Reset button in the Forms set of the Objects palette.
• The Submit button sends a visitor’s information to your database and closes the form.
• The Reset button deletes all of the visitor’s information and returns the form to its
default settings.
Now you’ll add a Reset button to the form.
1 Drag a Reset Button icon from the Forms set ( ) of the Objects palette to the empty
table cell to the right of the submit application image. The Inspector changes to the Input
Button Inspector.

The necessary options for the Reset button are preset; however, you can change the button
name from Reset by checking the Label option in the Input Button Inspector and entering
a new name in the Label text box.
For more information about creating a Normal button, see “Creating buttons and
check boxes” in the Adobe GoLive 6.0 User Guide.
2 Choose File > Save to save the page.
Changing the main table’s border and cell spacing
Now that you have finished adding images and form fields to the form, you can remove
the border of the main table and the cell space of its table cells. (Both the border and cell
space are currently set at 2, which has made it easier for you to select the table and its cells
while modifying the form.)
1 In the document window, click the left or top edge of the main table (above the
Membership Application row) to select it. The Inspector changes to the Table Inspector,
with the Table tab automatically selected.
2 In the Table Inspector, enter 0 for Border, 0 for Cell Space, and press Enter or Return.
3 Choose File > Save to save the page.
4 Click the Preview tab in the document window, and check how the page appears in
Layout Preview.
5 Click the Layout tab in the document window to return to the Layout Editor.
