By default, when you insert a form field outside of a form area, Microsoft FrontPage creates a form area with Submit and Reset buttons, and then inserts the field inside the form.

If you do not want to use this FrontPage automatic form area, and you want to write a script to use with your form fields instead, you must first disable this feature by doing the following:

1. On the Tools menu, click Page Options.
2. On the General tab, clear the Automatically enclose form fields within a form check box to disable the automatic creation of form areas.
