I am creating a form using MS Front page. Now, when the person clicks on
submit, I want the person to then be taken to a thank you page which tells
them there information has been sent.

Here's my html for it so far:-

Cany anybody spot any errors? The page I want the person to be taken to is
http://www.continental-translations.com/thankyou.htm

"spot any errors" of what? There are HTML errors, but you can find and
fix those yourself with the validator.

Are you having any problems with the form, doesn't it submit, does the
thank-you page not show up, or what?

I'm having problems with the link to the thankyou page. My form page is
http://www.continental-translations.com/contactus.htm and my thankyou page
is http://www.continental-translations.com/thankyou.htm

When I submit the form, I get taken to the
http://www.continental-translations.com/thankyou.htm
page, however it shows up an error page. When I click refresh, it then shows
the correct page. I think there must be a problem with my link somewhere

It works for me fine. Is it a problem with your browser's cache?

http://www.continental-translations.com/_vti_bin/shtml.exe/contactus.htm

What's with that shtml.exe in there? It's in your code as well.

Is this a FrontPlague oddity? Using Mozilla 1.6.

Please don't post upside-down.

I've fixed it now. If you notice, I had to change my thank you page URL to
one which was automatically set.

Thanks anyway guys! Appreciate help!

Just as an aside Weyoun... clever and artistic as it may be, it might be a
good idea to snip your sig a bit... 4-5 lines is *still* the general
standard. No disrespect you understand?

Cheers,

What do you expect if you use a variable-width font?

I *like* a variable width font when reading text. It doesn't hurt my eyes as
much :)

Besides, there is rarely anything one usenet that I look at that requires a
fixed width font.

Cheers

I do not see anything different yet.

On "New Page 1" I still see:
<form method="POST" action="_vti_bin/shtml.exe/contactus.htm"

Is that correct? Can't say I have ever noticed a post action such as
that before, with an exe as a directory name.

This bit seems to be in some 'webbot' that probably only works in
Internet Exploder:
U-Confirmation-Url="thankyou.htm"

Hint: New Page 1 ... you need to use real titles.
Thanks anyway guys! Appreciate help!

You're still posting upside-down.

yeah I do try to cut it out on alt.html mostly - the problem is I use
thunderbird and I've *tried* setting up a seperate account for the tech
groups im in cos they dont appreciate my sig either but it didnt work
and wiped my entire account settings. I manually delete it but sometimes
forget :)

That bit, at least, is okay, provided that shtml.exe does something useful
with the PATH_INFO environment variable[0]. See your local copy of
the CGI specification.

[0] Or if it's using IIS's extension mechansims rather than CGI, whatever
IIS uses to relay extra path information to the application.
