FP Search Function

[Jeff]

I published to a web server that has the FrontPage server extensions
installed. When I attempt to run a search using a Search form created from
the FrontPage Search template I receive the following error message:

"FrontPage Run-Time Component Page
You have submitted a form or followed a link to a page that requires a web
server and the FrontPage Server Extensions to function properly.

This form or other FrontPage component will work correctly if you publish
this web to a web server that has the FrontPage Server Extensions installed."

Any suggestions?

Download the free Google search tool.

Have you used FP's File Menu | Publish Web / Site to a server that has the FP extensions or if
locally testing via http://localhost/pagename.htm

I have done this but I am still receiving the same message.

Is this local or on a live/remote server and is the server IIS?

This is on a live/remote server and yes the server is IIS.

Make sure that Index Server is installed and running, and the site is set to be indexed, and a Index
Catalog has been created for the site.

Check with your host that the FP server extensions are installed - they are
obviously *not* installed (because the error message says so), even though
you've stated they are.

That is the text from _derived/nortbots.html (or
_derived/nortbots.htm)

nortbots.htm only appears in four cases:

1) You are testing on a disc-based website
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. Publish must be to
a URL of the form http://example.com
4) There is a bug associated with FrontPage98 which causes this
problem.

If this is the problem,
Open the page in a browser and view source - you will see the
reference to nortbots.htm in the <form tag.
