FP Forms on GoDaddy Servers ..

[Michael]

Well well... they do work after all... what's with that?

I did have to do the republish part of the explanation from GoDaddy below.
The re-save was not enough. Hah. Who would have thunk it!

so what is this mystical quirk/feature of FrontPage? anyone got any ideas?

thanks.

will see a list of files. Click on the file you are having form trouble with
and it will appear in the main window. Simply save this file, refresh your

The extensions were probably corrupt or not installed or they finally got
around to correcting permissions on _private folder ?

When the extensions are "properly" installed, opening and then saving the page causes the
forms web bot to rewrite all of the required web bot info.
Including proper paths and permissions.
