hi everybody!
i'm a newbie, and i'm surly missing something using the form tool to make a simple email form.
i know that i can't try the form directly in local, and that i need first to upload all the work on the server, but the point is that i don't understand an error that firefox shows up. this is what i did:
- created a form
- created the fields (button, mail_address_box, text_box)
- set up exporting page in .php, form processing and validation
after i fill all the required fields, this is the error that firefox shows
"Impossibile trovare il file /D:/Programmi/DHTML/Icas94/SITO/<?php echo basename(__FILE__);?>."
/*it's in italian, but it says that 'it's impossible to find the file' specified in the path...*/
what am i missing? if i upload the whole work on the server it will work? (unfortunately i can't access the server space at the moment because i'm waiting for the login passwords)
thanks a lot for reading and for helping!

Hi Jimmy,
I'll guess, and say the browser is trying to find the php script file for the form, after you hit submit, and somehow can't find it. I think you will have to export all your files first, and do a test when all the files are on the server as you mention. Maybe someone else has a better idea about the error message you get.
*By the way - welcome to the forum 
Cheers - George

Yes, it should work but you need to use a Hosting provider that support PHP ;-) |

All right at the end!
the mail form works perfectly, but i had to export the page in .asp because the server doesn't support php.
thanks again for the support and enjoy it: www.icas94.it

Hello again everyone!
Still having problem with the email form (5.9.3 software version) and I can't understand why since in the past it worked perfectly. This is what i've done:
- created a form
- added email field, text field and a submit button
- in the form processing properties I've selected "asp form processing", and filled the mail address field, subject and linked the success and failure pages (both .asp as well)
- in the validation tab I've selected the proper validation regular expressions
The web server can handle asp forms, but the problem is that when i submit the form i get redirected to the failure page. So the asp is clearly working properly, but i can't understand why i get a failure.
this is the website page: http://www.icas94.com/contatti.asp
thanks again for the support! |

| maybe this depends on the version of php installed on the server or on the php global settings |

thanks for the answer!
The fact is that i'm working with asp and not with php, or am i missing something? |

| Could be the same, something related with your hosting provider and your email server settings |
