    Re: Problems with Contact Page

    You need to go to:
    Video tutorials about how to create an amazing website with the BlueVoda website builder, brought to you by VodaHost web hosting.


    and review totally
    Forms (1)
    and
    Forms(2)

    this will guide you on how to set up a form

    Looking at your page it seems you have placed
    the form details on your page but have not actually set it up

    take a look at the tutorials above

      I read and listened to the tutorials at least a dozen times and can't see where i failed to follow the instructions. Here is the page URL, maybe that will help setting me straight.

      I've already spent two full days trying to get it done but to no avail. Thanks for any help you can offer. regards, David

        Here's the message I get when I press Submit Button:

        The requested URL /action.php was not found on this server.
        Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

          Did you design your "thankyou" page and insert the coding into it.

          This is the coding that is required, you need to edit the black text

          <?PHP
          $mailto = "your email";
          $email = $HTTP_POST_VARS['email'];
          if ($email == "") {
          $email = $mailto;
          }
          $mailsubj = "Form Application";
          $mailhead = "From: $email\n";
          reset ($HTTP_POST_VARS);
          $mailbody = "Values submitted from web site form :\n";
          while (list ($key, $val) = each ($HTTP_POST_VARS))
          {
          if ($key!="submit")
          {
          $mailbody .= "$key : $val\n";
          }
          }
          mail($mailto, $mailsubj, $mailbody, $mailhead);
          ?>
          =====================

          "Form Application : change this to whatever you want
          the subject to be in your notification email

          Your thankyou page must be a PHP not html
          then save page as action

          to do this:
          while your "thank you" page is open in your
          voda builder right click anywhere on page and
          select page properties , then make sure that
          "file extension" displays "php", then click OK

          now save page as action then publish

          Your form should work ok now

            Done this, now the error message I get is :
            Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in /home/ftmqzxz/public_html/webworldaffiliates/action.php on line 41

            Any more suggestions? David
