Order form in FP2003 stoped working

I used a FormMail.cgi script in FP it has worked for years, suddenly it
stoped working.

When a customer tries to place his email in the first field no flashing
curser appears for the text input.

The page sizes up and SOMETIMES an error pop up appears saying error in Line
915

and in the FP editor there is no line 915 ?

Any ideas anyone ? the orderform is
__http://www.glenstephens.com/order.html
(remove the underscore " __ " )

I would either check with your host and have then check server permissions,
or check with the author of the cgi script.

I got all kinds of JS errors in IE. FireFox won't even load the page.
Perhaps it's because your script page is outside the web root.

Regardless, your color scheme almost blinded me. AAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!!!!.......

Hi Bob
Thanks for having a look...A pair of shades in the mail to you HA
What did you mean by Perhaps it's because your script page is outside the web root.?

Remember this order form has been ok for a couple of years and only in the last week has it messed up.

You have a path problem
order.html is in the root web (top level)
- but your links to your script (and other pages) point to 1 level above the root (not possible) as in
<script LANGUAGE="JavaScript" SRC="../Glen%20Stephens/datecodeglen.js"></SCRIPT>
or
<a href="../Glen%20Stephens/home.html">
which should just be
<a href="home.html">
There is no folder Glen%20Stephens

As for your form not working
- it is not a FP form because it is using and action top a custom CGI at cgi-bin/formmail192.cgi
- contact the CGI script provider or your host for support with it
