https - error message on form

K

Knighthawk

I created a credit application on one website using FrontPage to link to from our corporate website. I am using a shared certificate from our webhost. In order to activate the SSL I have to use https but I receive an error message saying - "Front Page Error", user: please report details to this site's webmaster. Webmaster: please see the server's system log for more details.

I contacted the web host and was told that there is an issue with using https with FrontPage. The web host furnishes Formmail and it is activated but it seems I need to add html script to our page to make it functional. How do I do this and where do I insert the script. This is the script that needs to be inserted
<input type=hidden name="recipient" value="(e-mail address removed)">

If you are going to use SSL, then you do not want to sent the form data via email, as the defeats
the purpose having SSL. You need to contact your host about using a database or if you really want
to use Email, then about using PGP.
