WARNING on Saving - Post ID 176761
I just finished building a form with 48 fields that took sometime to complete
This great software has saved me hours of work.
As a webmaster I really appreciate how easy this form builder is to manage.
However, I just made a huge mistake, as I built the form I saved it several times.
When completed I exported it to my pc, then at the last minute I decided to change the submit button colour, made the change then changed my mind again and decide to close the program down.
I was asked if I wanted to save and I clicked NO as I already knew I had what I wanted saved.
Uploaded the files to my server and everything is working fine.
Then I decided I would save it to a database and tried to load the program in Web Builder again only to find the *.fb file was gone.
By clicking NO it deleted the *.fb file
Somewhere in the clouds up there is my .fb file
Happy New Year to All

Well that is no good at all!
I have spent the past hour trying every conceivable method to replicate this and the .fb file is never deleted. Are you able to reproduce this each time or was this just a one-time occurrence? If you can reproduce it, can you give me step by step instructions so I can try this out here?

I tried the same, but the .fb file was not deleted.

Hi Scott,
It hapened exactly as I have written.
I saved it as resume.fb.and when I saved it I know it was there,.
I must have saved it at least five times during the building process and as I said when completed exported it and got it up and running in no time at all. It was only when I went to reload it and save it to a database that I could not find it.
As you know when you click open file it takes you to the files just saved and there it is....To my surprise it was not there and I certainly did not delete anything. I have done a complete search of my pc with no luck.. I have no other explanation Scott, it is a mystery.

Hi again Scott,
I have decided to scrap this project and start again from scratch.
There are a couple of things I have to change anyway and I wanted to save it to a database.
It works okay, but I found one thing when I hit enter to move to the next field it submitted the form instead of going to the next field perhaps there was something I missed when building it.
When viewed on build it has rounded corners but not on the internet web page?
It is a student resume form, would it be possible to save it as a resume.html file in the correct format?
As it is returned in an email is very plain and the students would have to format it themselves, or do you have another suggestion.
Thanks in advance

The enter key is supposed to submit a form. That is a standard function for any form. The Tab key is used for going between fields.
You can save your form under any name you like. We do not add any restrictions there.

Boy..I must be brain dead today !
The rounded corners issue is usually an internet browser compatibility issue. You can see them in Firefox but not in IE7 for instance. Google it and see what you can find out.
I found this one real quick for you. But you can find others.
