Virtual Certificate Field Names

VirtCert is designed to be smoothly integrated into your existing web site. This page provides the technical details of how to do it. This page is designed for people who have a good understanding of HTML, Forms, and the DNS system.

Basic Form Fields

The form fields control the results of the search and the formatting of the results. Certain control fields identify which member is performing the search, and these control fields should be hidden fields. The basic form fields are listed below: Required Fields are in BOLD.
