    form does not appear in browser

    I have created a form using the form wizard. When viewed in browser preview it looks absolutely fine. I then published it successfully but it does not show at all on my contact page. Help would be much appreciated.

        Yes I know why

        Your contact page has been changed to .php because you used the form wizard.

        Change all your contact button links to http://www.timchadsey.co.uk/contact.php

        and it wil be fine.

        Afterwards I would go into your blueftp and delete the original contact page which is .html

          Thanks I will give it a go, but not now because I have to go and do some real work! I went into control manager and under file manager there is the normal html contact page and a php one. The code for contact.php shows form and the rest of the page. Many thanks for taking the time to help.

              Have changed contact pages to php and all is now visible: thanks. Have created success and error pages as outlined by naval, but if I test these pages by incorrectly completing the form the success page shows when it should be the error page. Any idea where I have gone wrong? See http://www.timchadsey/contact.co.uk

                  Hi David,
                  Have done as you said: when deliberately putting a wrong email address in the email box an error message appears on the contact page, but still no error page. The other validation boxes I have left as "text" and if I leave them unfilled it still goes to the success page. I' probably being very stupid but it's too late to do anything about that now! Any ideas?
                  James.

                    Have seen the light! Naval explained it all in another thread. Error page works fine. Thanks to those who helped on this one.

                      posted by Navaldesign in another thread
                      ***************
                      The Javascript validation has NO error page, it only pops up alert
                      windows.

                      If you mean the error page that should show up if there is an error
                      AFTER submitting, please note that the BV built in form processor, has
                      an error page that will ONLY report Highjack attempts. To see if it
                      correctly displays the error message, just use , in example, in the
                      name field, something like "George \n" . That \n is a newline feed,
                      usually used (as well as some others, like cc and bcc) to inject the
                      mail headers, thus using your form to send spam to third parties. As
                      soon as you try this value, the error page, if correctly built
                      according to the Form Wizard tutorial, will display the error page, the
                      field name and the highjack value submitted, together with a "This is a
                      highjack attempt and the message was not sent" error message.
                      **************



                      The other validation boxes I have left as "text" and if I leave them unfilled it still goes to the success page. I' probably being very stupid but it's too late to do anything about that now! Any ideas?
                      James.
                      You can still validate the other text fields by
                      double clicking on the field(opens the properties box)
                      and in the validate part
                      tick
                      required
                      Have fun
                      Regards..... David
