Redirect from submit to new URL?

[robin-in-charlotte]

Hi ... I have a brief form set up with input areas for name and email. When
"submit" is clicked, I need it to redirect to a new URL (within the same
window). I have done this many times with a redirect to a Thank You page on
the same website and never had a problem. Here, though, it goes to an error
page and on refresh, an error message comes up that says: "No variables sent
to form". However, I do receive the form information in my email, so that
part works fine. Can anyone help? Thanks very much ...

Are you using the FrontPage extensions to send the data from the form? If
so, set the "Thank you" page under the form properties; however you seem
familiar with this procedure so I'm assuming you've tried that. Perhaps,
rebuilding the page and reinserting the form could help, then republish the
page.

Or, are you using a custom/third party script to process the form?

I've not come across that particular error message before.

The FP forms handler does not support confirmation pages with absolute URLs
(pages on another URL)
Create one to a page in your site and on the confirmation page set a meta redirect to the new URL
