Need help with e-mail form ...

Hi,<br />
<br />
I'm new to this forum and need some help.<br />
<br />
I am using Front Page 2000 to operate a website for a small non-profit organization. I recently took over the site from the original webmaster.<br />
<br />
I was asked to add a link to all of the pages. In so doing a previously functioning e-mail response form is no longer working. The webhost hasn't changed, nor have their settings.<br />
<br />
I went to the page in question and looked at the form properties. When I clicked on OK I got an error message. I went to the microsoft website and found a link that explains the error message I'm getting.<br />
<br />
<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;196461#2">http://support.microsoft.com/default.as ... s;196461#2</a><!-- m --><br />
<br />
Since I know the webhost hasn't changed, and the coding was previously working prior to the link change. Can someone help explain what the problem may be and how to fix it?<br />
<br />
Many thanks for your assistance.<br />

Margaret S.<!--content-->did the webmaster previous to you use FrontPage? the error goes on about frontpage extensions, if your webhost doesn't support frontpage extensions then it won't work. Did you add anything such as a hit counter within FrontPage, if so then you will run into errors (if the webhost doesn't support frontpage extensions).<br />

The previous webmaster was using Front Page.<br />
<br />
The webhost says that they support the front page extensions, and the page was working properly until I added the link to a new page we added to the site.<br />
<br />
No hit counter.<br />
<br />
I'm getting basically two different error messages. One is if you are entering data on the site through your browser. You get this message:<br />
<br />
FrontPage Error.<br />
<br />
User: please report details to this site's webmaster.<br />
<br />
Webmaster: please see the server's system log for more details. <br />
<br />
What I'm trying to figure out is that the error message I linked to above occurs while using the Front Page program to develop the page. While putting a page together how does Front Page know where the webhost will be, as to whether or not the extensions will be there? <br />
<br />
I'm trying to figure out if there is something I'm missing on my computer, though why that wouldn't be included with the actual program surprises me. Or the possibility that some other program is interferring with Front Page.<br />
<br />
Thanks again for any input.<br />
<br />
Margaret S<!--content-->you should have posted the link to the page in first place..or at least the form code and the the links code that is causing this behaviour<!--content-->on the Microsoft website that covers the error message I'm getting while actually working with Front page (the web has not been uploaded to the webhost at this point).<br />

<br />
and this is the code:<br />
<br />
<form method="POST" action="--WEBBOT-SELF--" onSubmit="location.href='http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/archive/index.php/_derived/nortbots.htm';return false;" WEBBOT-onSubmit><br />

<p><input type="text" name="T1" size="20"><input type="submit" value="Submit" name="B1"><input type="reset" value="Reset" name="B2"></p><br />
</form><br />
<br />
Thanks again for any assistance.<br />
