Firefox and FP Forms

R

robinmcd

I am using FP2003. I am getting weird results with Firefox that I am not
getting with IE. Will someone look at the following and see if you can see
the problem?
the first link is: http://www.keithmcdonaldplumbing.com/giveaway.htm
on this link, if you view it in IE and click on the submit it emails
correctly and shows a custom confirmation form. In Firefox, when you click
Submit, it brings up a new mail message in outlook.
Additionally, a form I have on another page, will not work in Firefox at
all, but works fine in IE - link is
http://www.keithmcdonaldplumbing.com/Service_Call.htm

any help would be greatly appreciated!

In http://www.keithmcdonaldplumbing.com/Service_Call.htm
Change

<a href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=Request for
Service">
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit Form"></a>

To

<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit Form">


In http://www.keithmcdonaldplumbing.com/giveaway.htm
Change

<a href="mailto:[email protected]">
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit Form"></a>
<a href="mailto:[email protected]">
<INPUT TYPE=RESET VALUE="Reset Form"></a>

To

<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit Form">
<INPUT TYPE=RESET VALUE="Reset Form">

Also, do not use spaces to position items - spaces are different sizes
in different browsers. In FireFox, change the font size (View->Text
Size) and watch your "close window" link in

Remove the hyperlinks surrounding the submit and reset buttons

In http://www.keithmcdonaldplumbing.com/giveaway.htm you have
<a href="mailto:[email protected]">
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit Form"></a>
<a href="mailto:[email protected]">
<INPUT TYPE=RESET VALUE="Reset Form"></a>

and need just

<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit Form">
<INPUT TYPE=RESET VALUE="Reset Form">

And in http://www.keithmcdonaldplumbing.com/Service_Call.htm you have

<a href="mailto:[email protected]?subject=Request for Service">
<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit Form"></a>
<INPUT TYPE=RESET VALUE="Reset Form">

and need

<INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT VALUE="Submit Form">
<INPUT TYPE=RESET VALUE="Reset Form">

Is the form fixed? I get a confirmation page and no errors when using
in FireFox.
