I am having difficulty in getting a form to function on my website. I have used forms previously, on websites, but for some reason, the code that has successfully worked in the past will now not operate successfully.

Here is the code I am currently using after getting some limited advice from my ISP.

[<form action="../_gdForm/webformmailer.asp" method="post" name="Listing" enctype="multipart/form-data"><input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="/Documents/thankyou.htm">]

Here is the results that I get.

[“No variables sent to form! Unable to process request.”]

And here is the URL for the site, with the form is located.

[http://www.mackaycity.com/documents/listing.htm]

Could somebody please help me to rectify this situation.

Thank you

Hi,
First you should not put in brackets, the closing one gets attached to the URL and gives a 404.
Once I realized that, I got there and saw nothing unusual. My guess is that the of address your program to process it is wrong. Check the directory of the program.
Peace,

Thanks for the help.

What do you men by "address your program to process" and "Check the directory of the program"

This is all new stuff to me

Hi,
It is all in the form action part with the address and path of the program that accepts the Post:
"../_gdForm/webformmailer.asp"
The 2 dots and slash move the place looked in up one directory level, the _gdform directory is looked down into there for the webformmailer.asp program to process. If these are not the correct path, it will fail.
Peace,
