It's amazing how many people use the word "simple" to describe something
they are having difficulty with... Just an observation about these
newsgroups, nothing personal intended.
My first guess would be that you are not working with a web server-based
HTML document. Any form must be handled by an ISAPI on the web server in
which a document resides. If working with file-based webs or documents,
there is no web server present to process forms, and FrontPage knows this.
Hi Kevin,
You are right on both counts...
First, about the word "simple." I intended it in the sense of the
form's lack of visible complexity (five fields rather than five
hundred <g>) but you are absolutely right. I am well aware that "under
the hood" there is a lot going on, particularly with software like FP.
I have seen on many occasions that I make what I thought to be a
"simple" tweak only to discover that FP needed to write tons of code
to make it happen.
Now, about the substance <g>:
I created the form, and got the error. I know that my webhost server
has the appropriate extensions. Am I correct in interpreting the error
as telling me in essence "You can't run the form from this location,
but you can move it to a location that has the appropriate tools to
make it work."?
Also, what would I have to do to have it run properly on my system (as
a test). Is that the process called a disk-based server?
Thanks again,
