MS Office Forum / Publisher / Web Design / October 2006Web form not working
I have built web forms using Publisher 2003 on several websites successfully - until now. I read about DavidF's references on "Publisher web publication forms 101", "How to publish a Publisher web in HTTP", and "How to trouble-shoot Publisher web upload issues" recently and tried to solve the problem by deleting the "troubled website" from the hosting account and re-built a new one from scratch, but it still didn't work. Please help! Thanks Fiona What is the URL of the site?

I found several forms, and am not sure which one Rob was talking about, and am not sure why they don't work. As you have built sites with forms before, ask yourself what you did different this time. Perhaps the FPSE have become corrupt on the server. Either uninstall and reinstall them yourself, or have your webhost do it for you. Delete all your old HTML files off your server space, and upload new files via HTTP protocol... I will continue to think about it, but I didn't spot anything obvious...other than I bet you want to use "Portrait" vs. "Protrait" on the quote page. DavidF > Thank you David, it is www.zapwall.com. > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] >> Thanks >> Fiona Thank you guys, i really appreciate you taking the time to reply my question. Rob, can you please show me how to get text results from web form, thank you. Oops! thank you David for "shoulder-tapped' me about the error, corrected it now. While trying problem solve myself i did think about what i've done differently was creating two forms in one folder, so rectified it by delete the quote form from index files and saved it in order_online files. And when that didn't work I then removed the entired web files from hosting account then republished, and that didn't work either. So here i am talking to you experts. Please help. > In addition to Rob's comments... > [quoted text clipped - 29 lines] > >> Thanks > >> Fiona Under Help in Publisher type "forms", and there is a pretty good troubleshooting section, and other information. Included was: When adding form controls to a Web page, do not overlap them with other controls or objects and do not use these special effects on them: a.. Rotation b.. Fill color c.. Fill effects (tints, shades, patterns, and gradients) d.. Shadowing e.. Borders or BorderArt f.. Hyperlinks Aren't your forms color filled? http://www.zapwall.com/order_online_files/quote.htm DavidF > Thank you guys, i really appreciate you taking the time to reply my > question.

[quoted text clipped - 78 lines] > > >> >> Thanks > > >> >> Fiona Fiona, Did you try removing the lines seperating the form controls, from your newest version of the page at http://www.zapwall.com/order_online_files/quote.htm ? Did you go to Help and type "forms" and read through the topics, especially the troubleshooting section? Did you double check that you had the Submit form control setup correctly? Did you check the Form Properties to see if the email address and such was correct? You aren't using a Master Page are you? Have you contacted your host to ask them why your form may not be working? Just give them a link to your quote.htm page, and tell them it is supposed to be supported with the FPSE...but doesn't. Perhaps have them reinstall the FPSE? Totally guessing at this point....
