Forms Must Use Template with FormBlock Server Control

HTML forms can only be created in a folder whose template uses a FormBlock or Poll server control. In the Intranet sample site supplied with Ektron CMS400.NET, the Contact Information folder uses such a template, contactinformation.aspx (illustrated below).

See Screen Sample

You can modify this template as needed or create your own form template and assign it to any folder via its Folder Properties screen.

Since, by default, folders inherit properties from their parent folder, any new folders created under a parent folder use the correct template. Of course, you can break inheritance and assign a custom template for any folder.
