Re: Submitting a form

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

action="_derived/nortbots.htm" in the <form tag indicates the form page was FTPed to the server - it must be HTTP published to a server running FrontPage extensions.

nortbots.htm only appears in five cases:

1) You are testing on a disc-based website, including a FrontPage disc-based web that is being browsed through a web-server.

2) You are testing on a website that does not have server extensions installed or running.

3) The site (or form page) was FTPed from a disc-based web, or published using a FTP address for the destination, or published to a file system destination including a network share or UNC address (like \\machinename\path\webname), or to an address like C:\sitename . Publish must be to a URL of the form http://example.com

4) The site was correctly published, but the extensions were not installed correctly or were mis-configured. Re-installing the extensions may correct the problem.

5) There is a bug associated with FrontPage98 which causes this problem.

Thank you, but I don't have it set to email the results. I have it set to
send the results to the _private folder as HTML or and I've tried as a text
database.

I have tried making a one field form to simply things. It is here:
www.cmhos.org/new/formtest.htm

However, it does not work there, nor published to a remote site on my own
computer, but both have the server extensions.
