form submit button not working
|
|
|
| My form submit button is not working. I have pub 2000. I have spent at
least 2 hrs with my dialup 28.8 connection trying to find an answer but all
the links seam to be bad for the answer I need. My web site is robsheets.com
look under write us. The form button does not work. I used ftp to upload
(not sure what that means) and I understand I need to upload it with HTTP
(not sure what that is eather) I really do not know much about this but would
like to.
Also, to click on a link to bring up a picture in my web site is there an
option that will allow the webpage to stay open behind the new linked page
with out having to alter the html in another program?
And what about the title bar I would like it to be different than my web
page title. Is there a way to do that?
Please help. thanks, Rob

| Hello Rob & David
I am also experiencing the same problem in Publisher 2000.
Problem URL: http://www.ab-couriers.co.uk/page5.html
After reading through the numerous posts on this forum with regards to this
query I have confirmed using the http://www.yourdomainname.com/_vti_inf.html
and with the hosts of my site that FPSE is installed and therefore I now
understand that I must republish my site using HTTP not FTP.
So I have read through the ‘How to publish a Publisher web in HTTP’ as
instructed, however I do not have a ‘Web tab’ under Tools menu/Options.
The only tabs I have are General/Edit/User Assistance/Print and none of them
give me an option to uncheck the "Rely on VML..." option, and uncheck the
"Allow PNG..." option.
So how can you publish in HTTP using Publisher 2000?
Any help greatly appreciated
Regards
Laura

| The _vti_inf.html page only tells you that the extensions are
installed...does not necessarily mean they are working properly - especially
if you used ftp and then tried the http method. FTP will, 99% of the time,
break the extensions. Some hosts have an online control panel (like CPanel,
etc) which allow you to install/uninstall the extensions and some don't. If
your host doesn't you need to have them check the extensions and repair
them.

| Hi Rob, Thanks for your reply.
I do have a CPanel and I have logged into it and under 'FrontPage
Extensions' it reads the following:
Warning: It is recommended that you DO NOT install FrontPage Extensions on
your account unless you intend to publish your site directly from the
FrontPage application.
Uninstalling the extensions from the main domain will uninstall the
extensions from all subdomains and addon domains. Uninstalling will also
remove all .htaccess files in your web root (public_html). You must have the
extensions installed on the main domain before they can be installed on any
subdomains or addon domains.
Installing or uninstalling FrontPage Extensions will result in the loss of
all .htaccess files in your web area. Any directories you have protected with
WebProtect will become unprotected until you reprotect them.
Status: installed
There are also 2 buttons: 'Reinstall Extensions' and 'Uninstall Extensions'.
Any ideas?
Many Thanks
Laura

| Well I apreciate you help but I'm still haveing trouble. I got rid of one
problem only to have another. when I pull up my webite:
robsheets.com/page6.html it says at the top "[frontpage save results
component]" not sure why it says that? Also, when I click the submit button
now it comes back with, "Cannot run the FrontPage Server Extensions on this
page: "http://robsheets.com/page6.html"". I can't figure out what's wrong
with it. I deleted my whole website off the server and reinstalled useing
http this time. still the same problem. And I did reinstall the fp stuff too.

| To me it looks like your entire page is a form but, I'm sorry to say I've
never used Publisher for forms.
Generally, you'd not have your navigation and all that other junk within
your form tags...but then again Pub is a mystery maker.
Try making a test page with a new form in a table and see if that works -
keep it simple one or two fields above your Submit button.

| I don't know how to do a table. I really don't know about how to do a lot of
stuff as it deals with html. I like designing pages that look nice for
paper. This web stuff is different. Would frontpage help me with this
stuff? As I'm learning publisher is not made to do web pages but will if you
make it. I'm lookin for a program that will do a better job but still be
easy to use. I don't have the time to learn HTML before I get my web site
going. I can learn as I go along, no problem, but I need to start out with
something that's easy. Any suggestions?

| Web is very different than paper and is perhaps the primary reason you
should not use Publisher for web design except for maybe very basic pages.
Frontpage is very good and can be easy..or hard..depends on how much time
you want to spend learning it. Yes there is a learning curve. You have to
know the basics of HTML and a little CSS.
Frontpage and Dreamweaver are about the best out there as far as WYSIWYG
(sorta), imo FP is a tad easier to learn than DW, and DW is quite expensive.
You may want to consider getting a webdesigner to get you up and going with
a basic web and then you take it over.
Oh, yeah..you also have to learn how to use a good image editor like
Photoshop, PSP, Photoshop Elements, etc.
.....nothing is easy.

| I'm not against learning. I'm figuring I'll have to learn some anyway If I
want to be my own webmaster. I have no idea what css is, but wouldn't mind
knowing. I have a pretty good start on my website. www.robsheets.com , It's
just I want to go so much futher with it. Lots of thumbnails, guestbook,
etc. I am going to have to get a different program. SOme say FP is not much
better tham publisher with the html generator. I don't know what to do. I
do have a pretty good photo editor no problem there. Do you know if FP has a
thumbnail and guestbook button?

| Well, I have had a measure of success with my submit button!!! Instead of
having it send it to my email, I have it going into some folder on my web
space. I'll have to figure out how to get it, but just wanted to let you
know.

| FP will send it to a hidden folder within your web, Pub may do something
similar. IF it does you'd Import the csv file out of that folder.
Eha...there's a lot of FP bashers out there. I've been using FP since before
MS bought it from Vermeer...and it's come a long way since then. WYSIWYG is
never perfect, be it FP or DW or whatever, thats why you need to know the
basics. Dig in and have fun learning !

| Thanks for you help crash. I think I'm going to go ahead and put out the $
on FP. Do you know if you can do a guest book in FP easily or thumbnails?

| Hi Rob,
Have you managed to get your 'Submit' button working yet? When I try yours
on your site it seems to work, it doesn't come up with any errors.

| Yes, you can do a simple guestbook. Yes, has autothumbnailer. Forms too, as
long as your host has FP extensions installed and working.
Beware...don't use anything on the Drawing Toolbar though or you'll end up
with IE only pages and some code that looks like Publisher code. And, no you
cannot convert your Publisher web to FP, you will have to re-do it.
