When you create your online form, you can have NetSuite add field names for you, or you can label the fields yourself in your template.

Your form should also include a button your customers use to submit the form to your NetSuite account. The HTML code for this button is:

          <input type="submit" value="Button Text">

You can change the button text by editing the value in the code. For example, if you want the button to say Submit Form, the code would be:

          <input type="submit" value="Submit Form">

Below is a sample online form template:

          <HTML>
  <Head>
    <Title>OnlineLeadForm</Title>
    <link href="/images/stylesheet.css " rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
    <style type="text/css">
    </style>
  </Head>
<Body>
  <NLFORM>
    <table width="60%" border="0" align="center">
      <tr>
        <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF" valign="bottom" align="center" height="55">
          <p align="left"> <NSLOGO>
        </td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td bgcolor="#FFFFFF" valign="middle" align="center" height="1">
        <hr color="#CCCCCC" align="left" size="1"></td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td class="textll"><h1>
        <center>
        <span class="mainheader1 style1">Register With Us!</span>
        </center>
        </h1>
        <p align=Left> This is a sample online form template.
        <p> New leads would complete the fields below:
        <p><b>Name</b> <NLFIRSTNAME> <NLLASTNAME><br>
        Here you might enter special instructions.
        <p><b>Company Name</b> <NLCOMPANYNAME>
        <p><b>Email Address</b> <NLEMAIL>
        <p><b>Street Address</b> <NLADDRESS1>
        <p><b>City</b> <NLCITY>
        <p><b>State</b> <NLSTATE>
        <p><b>Zip/Postal Code</b> <NLZIPCODE>
        <p><input type="submit" value="Button Text"></p>
        <p align="center"><a href="http://www.linkbacktoHomePage.com">Company Home</a>
        <a href="http://www.link1.com">Support</a> | <a href="http://www.link2.com">Help</a>
        </td>
      </tr>
    </table>
  </form>

This example uses a stylesheet. You can reference a cascading stylesheet in your online forms if you store the CSS file in the Images folder of your File Cabinet. You should use a relational URL to reference the stylesheet. In the example above, the reference is:

Important:

You must include all appropriate end tags as well as <html> and <body> tags for NetSuite to recognize this file as an HTML file.

After you prepare your template file, upload it to your NetSuite file cabinet. For more information, see Uploading an Online Form Template.
