Should you wish to make fields required fields and automatically reject forms with empty/blank input fields, add the prefix ‘required-’ to the name of the input field in both the HTML form code and template.txt file.

Specify the custom error page for unsuccessful completion of input fields by adding the following line:

<input value="http://www.yourdomain.com/fail.htm" name="failure" type="hidden"

HTML form:

Company Name: <input name="required-companyname"

Template.txt file:

Company[required-companyname]
