Microsoft Office Live Small Business Community

I created a simple form to collect a visitor's email address and first name. That works fine and I can see the data in a Business Application Workspace. However, after the visitor clicks on the Submit button I want to redirect them to a different page to download a free e-book. How do I get the redirection to work with the form?

I found out how to do this. In the section of the Form where you enter text for "Provide a success message" I put the following code in where 0 equals seconds before redirecting.

<meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="0;url=http://yourown.com/otherwebpage.aspx">

Thanks for coming back to share

Just a slight correction in the code, missing a ", <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="5" url="http://yourown.com/otherwebpage.aspx" />

No. That is incorrect. What marketwiz had before was correct:

<meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="0;url=http://yourown.com/otherwebpage.aspx">

This method  works great with the business application form, but can anyone tell me how to create a redirect when using the contact us module with a custom form, I would like to send users to a thank you page and not display the generic message that is attached to the module.

Unfortunately, it's not possible to do that with the Contact Us module. Having said that, you can create your own Contact Us form by using Form Designer and using Contact Manager -> Business Contacts as your List. Then select the fields that you want your vistors to fill out. You could then do the redirection in the  success message box.

Unfortunately, the form that I'm using is quite extensive and I don't know if it's even possible to create that type of form with a business application,  I used the OLTX form generator and then did a lot of formatting to get the form the way I wanted it. I can't figure out a way to reformat the layout with the Form Designer. My form is located at http://snapshotconversions.net/orderonline.aspx. Right now it works great and is exactly the way I want it. Is it possible to keep my form the way it is and have it redirected to a thank you page on submission. Any input would be appreciated.
