4. Synchronize your mobile device to send the form to the website.

See the documentation that came with your mobile device for instructions.

Displaying the response

M-Business Server may respond to a form submission in one of two ways:

♦The server may alter the channel pages that you initially downloaded.

For example, suppose you subscribe to a financial channel and, every time you synchronize, your channel

updates a page that shows the current prices of a list of stocks you had selected earlier. You might submit

a form to change the list of stocks you want to watch. In this case, the server responds by changing the

page that displays the current prices to reflect your new list. To look at the server’s response, select the

channel.

♦The server may send down a separate response page.

Suppose you submit a form to the same channel, but this time you want to buy shares of a stock. There

are no channel pages to alter. Instead, the server downloads a new response page to the Forms Manager

confirming your order.

Using the Forms Manager

Accessing the Forms Manager

♦ To access the Forms Manager

1. Start M-Business Client.

2. Choose Menu»Tools»Forms Manager.

M-Business Client displays a list of forms that you have submitted or are going to submit during the

next synchronization. If a form was submitted successfully, the word success appears to the right of the

form’s name. Select success to view the response page sent by the channel.
