Here's my form code. It works in one folder on my server but not in another. Why?

I get the error message...
Cannot run the FrontPage Server Extensions on this page: "http://www. ... ... ... ... ... etc ... /familyhistorian/contact.htm"

What type of form is it your using, is it a standard contact form?

I use perl and send it through a cgi-bin on my server.

this works great for me.

if you want the script i can tell you where to get it, and how to configue.

Sounds like your hosting doesn't have the frontpage extensions installed or if they are installed, they're messed up and not working properly.

I would agree. To learn about forms in general, the W3 Forms page [w3.org] is a good starting point. However, FP extensions are a whole new animal. Most shared hosting providers offer an interface to repair FP extension installations or reinstall them.
