Re: Contact Form Problems

No need to apologize for jumping in. The more help the better, and the more
people that contribute the better.

In this case I suspect the OP will have to use an alternative form just as
you did. It appears that the ISP does not support FPSE driven forms.

Sorry to intrude, but I have 3 sites using publisher 2003 and all are
working
well, although one is new. My Contact Forms work ok, but like you I had
problems. To save me hours of headache I did the following just to make it
simple:
1, The Contact page for elgasia.net is simply the ISP .asp form. All I did
was create an <iframe>and inserted the href to the .asp form or
contact.html.
My contact page then opens the contact form in the iframe and the
customers
submit. It Took a while to make it simple but it works.
2. The elgasia.info site was different as the php and js verify would not
except the <iframe> without errors, so I simply made a contact.php form
page
with the onsite builder and my contact links all direct customers to that
form,which opens in the same window, which they submit and no problems.
All I
had to do then was put links on the onsite php back to the index.htm using
the ISP editor.
3. I use FTP (I have 3 different ones) when you publish your site to your
computer you should have all the files you need. Make a mirror of that
site
at your web site. For Example your Root should contain index.htm and the a
directory named index_files. Upload the root file from your computer to
the
root files on the ftp site, then upload the index_files to the index_file
at
your site.The elgasia.net site was 7.7 meg and uploaded fine.

Again I am new here and hate to intrude.
You can check out the sites at elgasia.info (New and small) and
elgasia.net
(Adv and shop site)

Thanks David... I guess I was confused, since I couldn't find another way
to
publish from Vista, and thought I was OK since I was first publishing to
my
local HDD then transfering with FTP, not publishing to FTP straight from
Publisher. So, how do I make a connection to my website at my ISP
(calplanning.brinkster.net) so I can use HTTP upload? Don't see a way to
do
this in the Publish to the Web window from Publisher, nor in the Vista
Network and Sharing Center... maybe there's something I need to enable in
Vista to to open the doors?

I am not going to try to jump into the thread you have going with Spike,
but
will make a comment or two.

ISP (FTP10.brinkster.com) with my FTP tool. Can someone please look
at my
website www.calplanning.com and give me some direction?
