Each form works perfectly and I receive a proper email - but only if using Internet Explorer. Firefox and Netscape both simply call up an empty email form when the submit button is pressed. Anyone else have this issue, or any ideas how to overcome the issue? Following is a link to one of the forms ... http://stmdovernh.org/Online_Forms/online_baptism_form.htm Ken

IE appears to ignore this, possibly because it knows it's in the middle of a FP web bot, but Firefox and the other browsers will see it and act on it, opening up your mail client. I never use FP forms so don't know what effect this will have but give it a go, save your existing page first. Delete the bit of code I have shown BOLD. Make sure you only remove that bit, including the < and >. You'll need to use the code tab, you won't see it in design view. Test it out in both browsers and see what happens. _____________________________ If it ain't broke..... fix it until it is. GAWDS Now where did I put that Doctype? (in reply to kenrg)

I changed it back and republished the file so it's the way it was. I'll investigate your theory - maybe there's some code earlier on messing things up. (in reply to jaybee)
