After a form has been submitted, could the acknowledgement form be reduced to just big enough to display the text ?

I want to use a long ish form in the SCCP cart checkout, it automatically appears before the cart (nice) but after submission i want the cart to be immediately obvious, at present you have to scroll down a long way to get to payment. (not good unclear for customer)

How about doing a redirect to a custom HTML page that has forwarding setup with a timer to automatically forward you back to your shop.:)

It would need to re direct back to the same active cart page, to complete the order/payment, is that possible ?

though a shorter form result would be simpler, surely that long response page is totally unnecessary

Yes, This could be handled in two ways. You use the built in custom page setup in WFB and add the redirect script to that or redirect to the url of another page that has the redirect script on that. Using my add custom pages to your shop you could make another page easily that looks like your shop. I bet you could add the code to the custom html page in WFB. I'll test it for you.:D

Edit: How's this Viv.:)

Eric surely that will return them to my very long form they have filled in so they will have to scroll a long way down to find the cart to pay.

Unless i can make it land on a smaller page than the form, ie a banner saying thank you for your form submission, please complete payment in cart below.

You could put an anchor in your form or below it and link to that.:)

The only anchor i know how to use is on the front of my boat :|

isn't there a way to just reduce the image that form confirmation text is on somewhere in the html ??

from what i've been testing with WFB it keeps the form size on the conformation when using the built in custom html page. I would have to look closer to see if we can hack it. The redirect is a quicker solution.

Ok Eric, i really hate to ask, but here goes "bet its code i cant work out how to do" :/

How & where do i put an anchor (rather than in the canal on a big chain)

I guess its going to return the user to the bottom of the form after submission WHICH WOULD BE GOOD :)
