Having trouble with FP 03 file upload form.

I have been trying to add a file upload form to my website (hosted by
GoDaddy) for 3 days. I followed the MS instructions to a "t" and i keep
getting the error page _derived/nortbots.htm file not found. I found a fix
that said if you remove the line of code:
onSubmit="location.href='_derived/nortbots.htm';return false;" that it will
fix the problem. It hasn't. I have my FP extensions installed on GoDaddy's
servers, so I know that's not it. Someone please help!

Sou8nds like you didn't publish prperly. The "nortbots" is a placeholder for
the local machine that gets changed on publish.

Does GoDaddy allow the file upload? They must configure it on the host
server, so you'll need to contact them.

Kevin,

I heard about that, so, i open the file 'live' in frontpage and redid the
file upload form and then it gives me --WEBBOTS--.htm file not found error.
What am i doing wrong? Here is the script. I didn't write it, FP did. Any
ideas?:

<form method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data"
action="--WEBBOT-SELF--"><!--webbot bot="FileUpload"
U-File="_private/form_results.csv" S-Format="TEXT/CSV" S-Label-Fields="TRUE"
S-Destination="Upload/" -->
<p><input type="file" name="F1" size="20"><input type="submit"
value="Submit" name="B1"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="B2"></p>
</form>

Tom,

I contacted GoDaddy and they say there is nothing special to configure and
that the problem is not on their end. They have FP 2002 extension installed.
Someone suggested that i didn't publish correctly, so i open the uploada.htm
file 'live' in FP and redid the file upload form and then saved and i get a
--WEBBOT-SELF-- file not found page? What am i doing wrong? Here is the code,
I didn't write this, FP did:

<form method="POST" enctype="multipart/form-data"
action="--WEBBOT-SELF--"><!--webbot bot="FileUpload"
U-File="_private/form_results.csv" S-Format="TEXT/CSV" S-Label-Fields="TRUE"
S-Destination="Upload/" -->
<p><input type="file" name="F1" size="20"><input type="submit"
value="Submit" name="B1"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="B2"></p>
</form>
