Front Page Mail Form

I am back with yet another problem form my website. I have a mail form that will not work. It can be found here:
http://teambajamarine.com/membership.html

I have played with this, reinstalled the extensions, even started a new form from scratch. Any ideas?

Starting to wonder if it was worth switching hosting.

I would stay away from frontpage mail form.. I had issues with it... Try using the PHP one in your cpanel..

it should work better in PHP.. For my Frontpage clients I have them use a certian php script.. I think its still s stickey in the PHP section here on the site..

microsoft does not include or guarantee that the unix 'front page extensions' will perform as well as the IIS based ones.... sadly.

A simple PHP script will do the job quite nicely.

It appears as though the FP mail form is looking for a file named "norbot"

Trust me.. use the PHP script I use, or the one thats in your Cpanel.. it is much easier..

MS didnt make the one that runs on Linux.. remember that...

All figured out...

Here is how it works, In order for Front Page to publish the site correctly using Front Page extensions, the site (mail form page) must be uploaded using Front Page by not using an IP address, it must be in the form of a http:// address. My mail form is now working correctly.
