    Shame. I was hoping somebody would offer me the simple alternative I was looking for.

    Come on though guys, do you really think I'd use print statements to alert users of errors and then expect them to press the back button to correct them!? This is 2005. Have we come no further than this with Domino. I just want an &Seq=1-like feature, which gives me a session with the server. Not too much to ask surely.

    If I wanted to print all forms to browser I wouldn't be using Domino. All my Domino solutions rely heavily on the use of subforms to break down the HTML of the pages. If a part of the site changes I change one subform. Can you imagine the headache of then having to think about all the HTML embedded in the "Form Agents". I mean, come on.

    If I printed the error to the browser would it have to be in a frameset so that the standard navigation elements were in place? Or would the form submit result in a blank unstructured page with nothing but the words "Please press the back button and enter your email address" on it. Would this really be a suitable solution to present to a client. The web has come further than this. It's a shame Domino can't keep up.
