Publisher 2003 - Web creation 2 ?'s

[Judi]

Love Pub 2003! It's starting to actually work like it's supposed to!

Two questions:
1. I have the same problem as a previous poster about the submit button for
forms. When you click "submit," it redirects to a form confirmation page, but
I never get the email. I used http to upload and have FPSE installed. I
entered the email address etc. on the submit button properties. What else can
I try?

2. I renamed each of my pages so they would be more "professional," but
Publisher adds "index_" to the front of each name (or whatever the name of
your home page is). Example: index_contact.htm. Isn't there a way to just
have it be named "contact.htm"?

Thanks!
Judi

You'd have to get with the host on this one. Because of the huge spam
problem providers have clamped down hard on all email functionalities. They
may be blocking it or not even processing it. If it's a valid email address
and you got to the confirmation page then the issue is on their end.

Turn on the sub folder option.

That's it, that subfolder option thing has helped me much!

And here I was trying to make it easier for my web site to work...I checked
the box for keeping associated files in a folder and now the names are what
they should be! Thanks! I'll contact my web hosting service to find out about
the form. Thanks again!
