Thanks Stefan.

Can I add more that one operation to the html.
Let's say I have field 1 and field 2 in the form.
Once I submit, I want to get 'total1' and 'total2' where
total1 is the sum of the two fields and total2 is the
multiplication of the two fields.

I have created the two hidden fields 'total1'
and 'total2' in the form and added them to the
confirmation page. Do I just write the code below two
times? - like this? - I have tried this and I get one
total but not the other:

onclick="this.form.total1.value = parseInt
(this.form.field1.value) + parseInt
(this.form.field2.value);return true;"
onclick="this.form.total2.value = parseInt
(this.form.field1.value) * parseInt
(this.form.field2.value);return true;"



do I need to put some kind of sign in between?

thanks in advance
Penelope

Try changing the formula to:

onclick="this.form.total.value = (this.form.field1.value-
0) + (this.form.field2.value-0);return true;"

Or

onclick="this.form.total.value = parseInt
(this.form.field1.value) + parseInt
(this.form.field2.value);return true;"

(below -

The values need to be calculated on the page client-side using JavaScript,
if you want to pass them to the FP Form Handler - Confirmation page, unless
you are using server-side scripting, such as ASP, PHP, etc.

Write your onclick code as follows (should all be on one line)

onclick="this.form.total1.value
= parseInt (this.form.field1.value)
+ parseInt (this.form.field2.value);
this.form.total2.value
= parseInt (this.form.field1.value)
* parseInt (this.form.field2.value);
return true;"
