This is the process that I used to make my guestbook. Pls see
if the process is faulty somewhere.


1) clicked on new > more page templates> guest book.
2) The guestbook form is displayed. I right click on the form and got
to "form properties" and fill in my email address. The file name text
box has "guestlog.htm" written in it. then I click ok.
3) now I go to new > new website> one page website and click ok.
4) then i save the guestbook form in this new one page website. Thsi
new webpage website shows me _private folder and few other folders.
the file called "guestlog.htm" is not in the _private folder but
outside it ( at the same directory level where the guest form is
saved).
5) then I upload all the folders, the guestbook form and the
guestlog.htm to the server.
6) I then access the guestbook form successfully through the internet.
7) But again when I try to type in something and click submit button,
it shows me that error.


Have I created the guestbook correctly...esp the one page website
thing? Are the guestbook forma nd guestlog.htm saved in the correct
places?


Will appreciate if u could verifiy if the procedure I have followed is
correct or not.
Thanks.
 
You must create or open a web / site first, then you can create the guest book or any pages.

You must always have a web / site open.

my email address is tushar dot chandra at asu dot edu. dunno why my
last message doesnt show my email address correctly?
 
you really should stick to one thread on the problem.

ASU doesn't appear to support FP extensions on their public server. How are you Publishing your web to the server?
