I am working my way through 'Frontpage 2002' which I find to be a marvelous resource. I am using 'members.cox.net' as my server and they do have FrontPage extensions installed. Everything I have published up to this point has worked wonderfully. However, I published the 'form.htm' listed on page 308 of the book and when I try to test it in my browser or in 'preview' (after having entered a 'name' and 'comment' and click 'submit') I get error messages such as 'page not found'. I did enter my e-mail address correctly as indicated in 'form properties'. Is this an ISP issue or can anyone straighten me out?

Hey Easy Ed,
Are you still receiving the data? Also, do you have page confirmations enabled. Maybe, the page you set as your confirmation page is missing or misstyped in your FrontPage Form properties. Often times, you may get a 404 error and still, somehow, manage to get the data to your file or mailbox.

Cheers!

I am having the same problem as Easy Ed. I am using Easy-Cgi and they too have the FrontPage extensions. When I followed the instructions with form.htm, I got the same error message. After reading the reply to Easy Ed's post, I tried again and checked to see if I have received an email. There was nothing. Am I all wet or is there something that I can do to make this work? I keep following the instructions and I still can not get any form to work for me.[B]
