viewed from the internet. (if the correct URL is changed)?

The answer to my interpretation of your question is to write the asp
page so that it processes the form data, but does not display the form
results.
Or did you mean something else?

Form results can be DISPLAYED by an asp page, but they are never stored
in one - unless you are using a text file with a .asp extension as a
database of sorts. In this case, delete the file.
As I said before, the form handler can STORE the form results, either in
a text database (example: csv format text file), an Access database (or
mySQL, MS SQL, Oracle etc.) or email the results. You can change the
script to not DISPLAY the results. To clear the results, edit or delete
whatever is storing the results.

Email will not work unless you are using a server with email facilities.
If using the extensions for email then email transport must be enabled
in the extensions, and the page must NOT have an .asp extension - .htm
or .html are the only options.
How are you attempting to add data to the database? Database Results
Wizard or Custom code? Are you accessing the pages on a server? Does
the server support asp and Access?

Ok im goin to forget about email. Now as for the Access database...
I go into the form page of my site, right click, send to datatbase, options,
and it creates a database called "feedback". and thats all fine and done.
Then i go and click on the feedback access file in my recent documents. I can
click results and get to the database. on the top it shows all the fields
such as name date etc. but i cannot get the results to display underneath.

The database should be in the fpdb folder. Then you MUST publish to a
web server on a Windows server running FrontPage extensions (the
extensions will ensure the correct permissions are on the fpdb folder.
Then test the pages. Nothing will work correctly unless you use a web
server and open the form page using a URL in the form http://example.com
(replace example.com with your own domain name or IP address).
If you are editing live on the server, then try importing an Access
database into the website. FrontPage should ask you to place the
database in the fpdb folder, and then set the correct permissions on the
folder.

ok i think i did everything right. on the form i checked update to database
or whatever, and it will send to an access database in the fpdb folder. i
filled out the form as a test and it worked i got the confirmation page. then
i went to the fpdb folder clicked the database, opened it, and i clicked
tables, then "results", a table comes up and displays all the form fields at
the top, but no results...

where did you get that form from?
are you trying to fix web pages created with Publisher or something else?
home.htm page has multiple body tags.

I have tried that it does the same thing. and if i get what you said right...

DO NOT upload with FTP - You MUST use the FrontPage HTTP method to
upload, and the server MUST have the FrontPage extensions. If you use
FTP you will have to set the correct permissions on the fpdb folder
yourself. The server must be able to read and write to files in the
folder, but anonymous users must not be able to browse the folder, or
download files from it.

Slightly OT;
Ron, can you see my last reply to salsweb post? I can't, the only way I can

Reader: Windows Live Mail or OE and only on some messages..and only on ms
public server ng.
Anyone have any clues lemme know...TNX
