Help With ~ Filling in the Blanks:
  Taking care of those pesky forms.

  So - you found a freebie you want to order and you are faced with filling in a form with your information. It's pretty easy, Just follow the steps below and you should have no problems.

  Every form has blank spaces called 'fields' or 'boxes' that will accept information when 'activated'. I've put in an example form at the bottom of the page to illustrate some of this stuff.

=^=^=^=^=^=^=^=

Step 1. Place your mouse cursor over the first box and left-click once to activate. Type in the information requested.

Step 2. Move your mouse cursor to the next box and click. Or use the "tab" key to move it automatically. Type in the requested information.

Step 3. Continue until all the boxes are filled in.

Step 4. Click the button at the bottom ONCE. It will usually say something like "Submit" or "Send". (Do not click the button more than once. Some forms take a minute or more to process.)

Note: Some forms use "radio buttons" and/or "Drop-down menus" and/or "check boxes" (See examples below). Just pick one or more and click one.

Note: Most forms indicate required fields with an asterisk or bold text. You can safely leave other boxes blank.

Tip: Save time. Have your shipping information ready and "standing by" in a text program like notebook or wordpad, then just copy each line and paste it in the field.

That's about it - go play with the example below until you are familiar with the way forms act. (Clicking on the "Submit" button won't do anything.)
Also - for some reason the 'tab' button won't work in my example form.


For more experienced users:

You've filled out forms before, you're quite familiar with them and are also quite bored with the whole thing.

Well, so was I, so I looked around for a free software program that would do it for me.

I found it in Gator, and I used it for almost two years. Then they changed, became more like a predatory program and even started spying on my movements through the internet *. So I got rid of it and looked around some more.

Then I stumbled across a free program called A.I. RoboForm. It does everything that Gator ever did and more - without the spying and the other crap.

You can read more about it here.  —  Or just download it here.

I guarantee that you will be happy with it the first time it fills in a long form with just a couple clicks.

Tip: Don't use A.I. RoboForm, or any other form-filler program, unless you are familiar with forms and how they should be filled out.

Example form:
This is not a real form, just some pieces thrown together,
like Frankenstein, and it will not work in some older browsers.

Typical form components:

Simply place your mouse cursor over a 'field' and left-click once. This activates it. Type in the requested information. Move to the next one and repeat.
Note: Required information will usually have an asterisk next to it, or be bold or red or something.

Name, address & comments part.

* Name:    

* E-Mail:    

* Address:  

Address 2: 

* City :       * State:  

* zip code:

Phone #:

Hair color:

# of toes:

No asterisk = not required information, you can ignore it.

Typical Comments Field:

Place the mouse in the box,
left-click once and just type as normal.




Multiple-choice options

"Drop-down" menu type.
Click the 'arrow', choose from the list that appears.



Radio Button type.
Usually just pick one
and click the 'spot'.
earth
air
water
Check Box type.
Click on one or more
sun
moon
stars
planets



That's pretty much it, all forms you encounter will have at least some of these variations in them. Once you've done a few you will be completely bored with the whole idea.


One more thing, a lot of forms will have at least one of these:
Yes! send me all your e-mail ads, forever and ever!
Yes! Give my e-mail address to everybody in the world!

You should make sure these boxes are UN-checked! (unless you want to get all their spam-mail.)
