I just put in a e-mail form from my hosting company. Now when a person clicks on send there is suppose to be a page coming up that says thank-you but all that comes up is a page not found.
Could someone look at this & see what I have wrong there.
Thanks for your time.

You need to contact your host regarding any issues with this script, as it is not FP related.

you probably need to create the thankyou.html page...maybe.

do you mean like a new page ??? Then link into that page ??? Sorry really new at this.
 
you probably didn't upload the file 'thankyou.html'.

yes, you need an actual web page called 'thankyou.html' the script is calling
for it as your "thank you page". It won't go anywhere if there's no where to go,
hence your "page not found" error. The script should be working (assume there
are no other errors). You can make it as simple or as elaborate as you like,
saying "thank you for your submission" etc, and have a link back to the home
page. Make sure you publish it to the correct folder -whereever as your url
points to - here's an extract of your code;

<FORM action=http://www.mecca.ca/php-bin/mailform.php3 method=post>
<INPUT name=thankyou type=hidden
value="http://www.pinefallslodge.ca/thankyou.html">
<INPUT name=recipient type=hidden value="(e-mail address removed)">
<INPUT name=subject type=hidden value="On-line web enquires"><BR>

I advise you read the instructions again!
 
Thank-you
Sorry had company for a while here. Will work on it.
Just not sure that I understand how to link that page up to it though. Will try & figure it out here.
Thanks for all your help.
 
Wouldn't Robin want/be able to to set the link in the form?

Only if she is using the FP Form Handler to process the form data.
