    Your submit button probably isn't within your form. If it rests outside of the form then its just a button that doesn't do anything

    Do you use a Password Protected Directory? Need a way to allow users to make their own account, try my .htaccess Login Script

        Check the action of your form. Make sure that file exists

                Both the submit button and your Text area (for comments) are outside the form area. Follow these steps:

                Copy the textarea and the submit button (select them, right click, Copy) , then delete them.

                Stretch the form further down to cover the position of these two elements. Paste them back in the page using the Paste Icon in the top toolbar. Then save and publish again.
                refresh your browser before testing.
                During editing, make the page background white so you can see what you are doing.
                Also, name the Text area, i.e. Comments

                  Re: submit button

                  My problem with the submit button is that when used in previewing from a browser such as IE, it gives me the old:



                  This program cannot display the webpage


                  Most likely causes:
                  • You are not connected to the Internet.
                  • The website is encountering problems.
                  • There might be a typing error in the address.

                  ...instead of my TY page.

                  Connection is fine...website is fine...I entered everything exactly as the tutorials said (or so I think). So what did I screw up? Or will it just not work until the site is published and up like page transition special effects?

                    Re: submit button

                    If the site is NOT published, the TY page doesn't exist, so the form can NOT submit the info to it.

                      Re: submit button

                      But I am entering it via a link from the button, so it seems that it should show up in the browser. All of my other links work perfectly from the preview browser. Please feel free to check the site out. It will hopefully be up Monday as I did not get the order done until the wee hours of the morning today.

                        Re: submit button

                        The reason yours works is because it is loaded onto a server (GODaddy) for now. So all the pages will be found.

                        If some one creates pages and never puplishes them to the server- then the links won't work on the computer in preview.

                        By the way- very nice job on your site.

                            I assumed you had a site loaded at GoDaddy because that is the only way you could have others preview it. If you used the BV Web builder -your preview button only shows pages on your computer. Therefore- no one could "take a look" at them.

                              No, just the parking page is there. I bought the domain almost a year ago and am just now getting to it. I was talking about previewing through the browsers that I have loaded. But thank you for the input. BTW-the site should be up today in the afternoon, as I noted in a previous post.
