Wrong confirmation page

D

Dudley

I have a form1 which has a confirmation page A which includes a link to form
2 to add optional further information.

For form 2, I have set a confirmation page B which is a simple
acknowledgement, but clicking 'submit' goes to confirmation page A which has
the link to the form which has just been completed. I cannot get it to go to
confirmation page B.

Can anyone suggest what is going on?

Thanks for any help.

You have two forms on Additionalofficers.htm one is set to
confirmaddofficers.htm and the other is set to acknowledge.htm

Many thanks to all for your help, but I still have the same problem.

I have deleted confirmaddofficers.htm from the code, but it still goes to
the form. I have even changed the name of confirmaddofficers.htm to
confirmaddofficers2.htm, but this made no difference, so it is not going to
the standard copy of the form. The address when it goes to the wrong form is
shown as
http://www.newincorporation.co.uk/_vti_bin/shtml.dll/AdditionalOfficers.htm ,
but I cannot find this when I ftp the website.

I am even more confused!!! Can anyone explain?

Thanks
Dudley

The confirmation page for
http://www.newincorporation.co.uk/AdditionalOfficers.htm is currently
set to acknowledge.htm
In a browser after submitting the form this [acknowledge.htm] will
always have the address
http://www.newincorporation.co.uk/_vti_bin/shtml.dll/AdditionalOfficers.htm
since the page is launched by the extensions.
acknowledge.htm has the words "Thank you for your order" above a
corporals chevrons.

acknowledge.htm also contains a form:
<form method="POST" action="_vti_bin/shtml.dll/acknowledge.htm"
webbot-action="--WEBBOT-SELF--">
<!--webbot bot="SaveResults" s-email-format="TEXT/PRE"
s-email-address="(e-mail address removed)" b-email-label-fields="TRUE"
s-builtin-fields u-confirmation-url="confirmAddOfficers2.htm" startspan
--><input TYPE="hidden" NAME="VTI-GROUP" VALUE="0"><!--webbot
bot="SaveResults" endspan i-checksum="43374" --><p align="center"><font
size="5">Thank you for your order.</font>
</p></form>

Since this is on a confirmation page loaded by FP extensions this form
will be automatically submitted and go on to *this* forms confirmation
page (this is a technique used to send form data to multiple recipients
using the FP extensions). This form's confirmation page is
confirmAddOfficers2.htm, which exists on the server. Your forms are
working correctly (from the confirmation pages point of view), even id=f
the effect is not what you want.
Remove the form from acknowledge.htm.
