Search page does not work

P

Pepe

I put a search box in the left bottom of the first page
www.theartoftaichi.co.uk/ as a test.
But somehow the error message says that The page cannot find. http error 404.
I have recalculate hyperlinks in live. It is still not working.
Can anybody give me an idea why it is not working?
I assume where I am keeping this file is not important. My website folder
is my My document folder.
Thank you very much in advance.

Kind regards,

How did you publish the site? Did you ftp it? If so then you may have broken
it. The search functionality uses the FP Server Extensions. To use FP Server
Extension features you must publish the site using http. That's the normal
cause of this particular error as the search bot is posting to is generally
for this type of issue.

Hello, Mark,
Thank you very much for your reply to my question.
I uploded everything by Frontpage Extension not by ftp.
I have just inquired to my server about it.
They said they support FP extension but they do not support Frontpage search
functionality.
Is it quite common?
I thought if they support FP extension they support everything
Thank you very much.

Kind regards,

Kind reagrds,

Common on Win 2003 servers where the WAIS search is not supported and the host does not want the overhead of running Index server
