Are you creating and testing the form via http://www.yourdomainname.com/formname.htm ?

I made it offline, placed it online and also see it. I can fill it in, clear
the fields etc. But when I click 'send' it gives me an 404 pages and the url
http://mydomain.com/--WEBBOT-SELF--

My email is added to the form, so I really don't understand this. FP ext are
accepted on my host.

Are you creating and testing the form via

http://www.yourdomainname.com/formname.htm ?

1. You opened your local web via File Menu | Open Web, correct?
2. Created/Edit your pages and your form
3. You then used File Menu | Publish Web to publish the pages/form to http://www.yourdomain.com,
correct?

Ok, but now I have the prob that I cannot publish with FP. The publish
option is not highlighted...

 

[Thomas A. Rowe]

You have to have a web / site open (File Menu | Open Web / Site) and since you have used FTP to
upload content to a server with the FP extensions, the extension may be corrupted, and will need to
re-installed by the web host, before you can publish via FP's http mode.
