Re: How, oh how, do we make a simple questions form...???

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

This is a simple form that should function without any problems using the FP extensions to process it.
The example actually uses PHP, but that can easily be changed to any server side language you wish - including the extensions (which would be easiest if you don't have the required programming skills).

Create a form in FrontPage, add your labels, text boxes, text areas and radio buttons etc.
Use Form Properties to send the form to a file (in the _private folder) and/or to email if your host supports email through the extensions (some hosts don't).

http://www.theenginerevolution.com/formtext.html will fail since you don't have FrontPage extensions installed on the website.

http://www.theenginerevolution.com/car-seat-covers-wallet-2.html does not exist.

http://www.theenginerevolution.com/formcgi.html - There is a problem with the Perl script at cgi-bin/custom.cgi.
Impossible to speculate on the problem without seeing the code.

http://www.theenginerevolution.com/form-copy.html Again - requires extensions.

Please can anyone tell me how to make a simple questions form just like the
one I've done with here at:
http://www.theenginerevolution.com/car-seat-covers-wallet.html .

It's exactly what I want, but the script (it's free) will take nearly all
visitors away from our site ( which we certainly don't want)

I have spent 3 12-hour days trying to make a fp form-script work, I'm
ashamed to say and have finally managed to find this great forum again.

I also copied one fp form that I found on a site which 'nearly' works:
http://www.theenginerevolution.com/form-copy.html
and I made this one:
http://www.theenginerevolution.com/formhtml.html and :
http://www.theenginerevolution.com/formtext.html and...
http://www.theenginerevolution.com/formcgi.html and...
http://www.theenginerevolution.com/car-seat-covers-wallet-2.html and...
(I've deleted the other 88 ...)

Could anyone tell me which tiny, minute little bit of the setup is wrong in
any of these and I will be oh, so truly grateful???

Thank you very much for your time.
