WEBBOT-SELF ERROR

Good Morning,

I hope everyone is doing great this Thursday! I'm trying to add a survey
form to our website and when I click the submit button I get a page not
found error with
--WEBBOT-SELF-- in the url. It tells me HTTP 404 file not found. I checked
and we do have FP extensions installed on the server

The page is http://www.burnerparts.com/survey1.html

Please advise, thanks! (I tried posting this in the extensions newsgroup
but there doesn't seem to be much activity going in there)

Sincerely,
Anthony Smith
In God We Trust!

rename your confirmation page to: survey1_results.html (no capitalization
for the R)

I did but still the same results. I'm thinking there's something wrong with
the following code on the page:
----------
<form method="POST" action="--WEBBOT-SELF--" name="Survey1_Customers"
language="JavaScript">
<!--webbot bot="SaveResults" U-File="survey1_results.txt"
S-Format="TEXT/PRE" S-Label-Fields="TRUE" B-Reverse-Chronology="FALSE"
S-Email-Format="TEXT/PRE" S-Email-Address="sales@burnerparts.com"
B-Email-Label-Fields="TRUE" S-Builtin-Fields
U-Confirmation-Url="survey1_results.html" -->

--------

I tried changing it to:
------
<!--webbot BOT="GeneratedScript" endspan --><form method="POST"
action="_vti_bin/shtml.dll/survey1.html" language="JavaScript"
webbot-action="--WEBBOT-SELF--">
<!--webbot bot="SaveResults" U-File="survey1_results.txt"
S-Format="TEXT/PRE" S-Label-Fields="TRUE" B-Reverse-Chronology="FALSE"
S-Email-Format="TEXT/PRE" S-Email-Address="sales@burnerparts.com"
B-Email-Label-Fields="TRUE" S-Builtin-Fields
U-Confirmation-Url="survey1_Results.html" -->
------
Then I got the error Frontpage Extensions cannot open this page. So I
changed it back to what you see on there now.

So there something missing/wrong in that part of the code. What do you
think?

I notice your saving the results to survey1_results.txt and your
confirmation page is: survey1_results.html

Does survey1_results.html actually exist and if so where??

Should I change those names? The html file is in the root directory along
with the .txt file:
http://www.burnerparts.com/survey1_results.html

FYI I didn't use FP to publish this site. This is a Miva Merchant Website.
I've only used FP to edit/create pages for the site. After I created/edited
pages I copy them to our host server via FTP program. I don't use FP to
publish pages on this particular site. Don't know if that has anything to
do with why I'm getting this error. Most of the pages are made through Miva
Merchant not FrontPage 2003.

The text file needs to be in the _private folder, and should be created
there automatically.

Have your host make sure the _private folder has "Server write" permissions.

If you are using FrontPage components, and it appears you are, you must http
publish to a server with the extensions installed in order for them to work,
not FTP, which will corrupt the extensions.

Your host must run a health check to fix the extensions, or reinstall them.

In order to use FP components, you must publish through frontpage in HTTP
mode, not by FTP or with any other third party "web site maker"

Otherwise it won't work.

If you still want forms, then you will need to use a thirdparty form
processor script for the server side language supported i.e. PHP, PERL/CGI
or ASP or Sharepoint etc.

In frontpage, you need to adjust the form properties, and put in the URL to
the form processing script that you're using.

See this MSKB article:
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;en-us;196461 which
explains the use of the server extensions and how to use forms for sending
an email.

Otherwise see this: http://www.murraywebs.com/faq.asp - the screen shot(s)
shows the form properties; right click your form and select "send to other"
then click "Options" put in the action and method which will appear in the
code like <form action="post"
method="http://www.yoursite.com/cgi-bin/yourscript.cgi"> or whatever it
happens to be.
