Forms do not work - 4/3/2007 17:42:37   
Hi,

I am at wits end with form problems so I hope someone can spot what is wrong with them.

It seems that my forms that previously were working fine quit working so I created a new form and dang if that one doesn't work too! I have checked, double, triple checked and it appears as though is should work but when the Submit button is clicked, nothing happens. No error message, no email received, no 'thank you' page - no nothing.

I've Googled and browsed these forums and fooled with it most of the day without success. I've uninstalled and re-installed the FP 2002 Extensions with no impact.

Here is the section of code containing the form. Please let me know if I have missed something. Thanks in advance for your help.

Frank

Welcome. If it's been working and you made no changes, talk to your host first and see if they've done anything.

When you upload are you using Publish or FTP?

I was just wondering if his host had disabled sendmail or something.

I don't see any of this (from you initial post)>

in the form you've linked to. In fact, when I open that form in FP and check the form properties it doesn't appear to be assigned to be sent anywhere???

This is bizarre! I found as you did that the html in the page on the website and the html in FrontPage 2003 do not match even though I am directly modifying the file on the web server (which I control).

I changed the color of some text on the page just to make sure that it was updating and it did change as expected. However the form is still missing the attributes for email, thank you page, etc.

It seems that the page is not retaining the form attributes when the page is saved. Does this provide any insights?

I went back to an older version of the form which is at: http://www.dms-systems.com/html/qwikfacts_questionnaire.htm
