Why do I get this message in Publisher (WEBBOT-SELF). Trying to make a form
and use the submit button set up to email me.

Hi David!

I checked the FAQ, and either I'm too tired to read straight (which could be
the case), or there is no info at this location regarding specific
instructions about how to properly set up web form information retrieval
(email or form file on web server) to avoid getting the WEBBOT error.

I am desperate to find the info. I'm using Publisher (but don't have FP
installed - don't own the pgm). I'm trying to use a CSV file to collect my
info on my web server (FP extensions are activated). Any advice?

Thanks,
Lori

Lori,

David Bartosik has moved his Publisher webdesign content. You might want to
confirm that FPSE are successfully installed and are functional. Read the
article "Publisher web publication forms 101":

Also David recently posted an answer that might be helpful to you. Read the
post and David's response to: "Please help with redirecting files in Web
Page using Publisher 2003" 4/12/06 by Bill

Thanks for your quick reply! I'll read it. Somehow I managed to work
through it myself - not sure what I did. I learned a lot though!

It is usually better to start a new post. Barry is long gone...

I would suggest that you start with looking under Help in Publisher. There
are several good troubleshooting articles and instructions on how to build
and use forms.

Also reference: Publisher web publication forms 101:
http://msmvps.com/blogs/dbartosik/archive/2006/01/07/80564.aspx

And then you might need to reference: How to publish a Publisher web in
HTTP:
