Frontpage 2003 form errors out

[steve]

Hi, thanks for the help.
When a user clicks submit on the form, it sends them to an error page.
I am using FP2003 and yahoo as a webhost. They supposedly have the
extension I need for this.
I have input my email into the FP form properties and uploaded to the web.
This is the only thing that doesn't work on my new site.
i used http: to upload also.
the site is www.nakolohekane.com under the contact tab.
thanks again

Did you create the form directly on the live/remote site or did you create it locally and then
publish it via FP's http mode to the live/remote server?

The host (in this case, Yahoo) must configure the forms to email transport
via the extensions.

Hi Thomas,
I created the site locally and the published it using the FrontPage or
Share Point Services option on the Remote Website Properties to be exact.
Thanks. Hope that helps.

Hi Tom, on a side note, I'm using FP 2003. Don't know if that matters.
In response to your post....In lamens terms, can I do anything to control
those extenstions- I don't see anything on Yahoo. Thanks

There is nothing that you can do from your end, you web host must have install and configured the
extensions to process forms and send email.

You will need to contact Yahoo for support of the form action you have
(which is Not a std FP forms handler action)
<form method=post
action="http://[email protected]&confirm=contactdone.htm">

Or delete that form action and recreate the form using the FP SE defaults
