grendelos -> Problem with Feedback Form on WinXP/IIS 5.1 server but not on Win2kPro/IIS 5.0 (11/9/2005 2:00:40)
|
I have been driving myself crazy for the last few days trying to resolve this problem and I am looking for some help.
I am working on my WinXP Pro/IIS 5.1 server with FP2000 extensions. I have created a web site and have added a simple feedback form (add new feedback form page, save feedback form page, no tweaking). When I preview the page in both IE and Netscape, I get the feedback form to load but when I hit the submit button I get a blank page in response, instead of the usual confirmation stuff.
I have done a head to head evaluation between WinXP Pro / IIS 5.1 and FP2000 extensions and Win2K Pro / IIS 5.0 and FP2000 extensions (using Virtual PC 2004 for identical environments) and have found that when I do identical steps on both, the feedback form works in my Win2k Pro environment but not in my WinXP Pro environment.
Here are the steps of my test:
1. Install either Win2k Pro or WinXP Pro
2. Install IIS with FP2000 Extensions
3. Install FrontPage 2000
4. Create a new web site (http://localhost/myweb)
5. Add a new Feedback Form Page.
6. Without tweaking the settings on the page, save it at feedback.htm
7. Preview the page in my browser (http://localhost/myweb/feedback.htm)
8. Hit the submit button.
9. Browser displays in the the address bar: http://localhost/myweb/_vti_bin/shtml.dll/feedback.htm
At this point it differs, on the Win2k Pro system, I see Form Confirmation information, on the WinXP Pro sytem, I see only a blank page.
Any ideas?
