Hello,

I want to send form results via e-mail using FP extensions in a .ASP page
but having trouble to do so. If I change the page extension to .HTM it works
!

Do FP extensions not work with .ASP pages?

Thanks,

Sam

Correct, you can only process FP components via the FP extensions when the p
age(s) has either a .htm
or .html extensions and no server-side script within the pages.

I am having a similar issue with htm and html forms. Would a server side
include be considered server-side scripting?? I have an include in my
top shared border file to carry my header across sub webs.  I have
upgraded from Win2K w/ FPSE 2000 to Win2K3 w / FPSE 2002 and none of my
forms will validate, write to text files or send emails.

If the page does not have a extension of .htm or .html, then FrontPage
run-time components (hit counters, forms using the FP extensions) will
not work.
SSI usually means you have an extension of .shtm or .asp, and the file
uses a server side process that excludes the FP extensions.  It's the
file extension, and how the server processes the files, that count.

I added the htm and html extensions in my configuration mapping in IIS 6
to the ssinc.dll. This allows my virtual include to "./banner.htm"
(which is a dhtml drop menu for all pages on the site). I thought I
would try converting all sub webs to folders and replacing the top.htm
(the include) with the banner.htm file. Then I wouldn't have the subweb
issue. I can do this on the front end server and still maintain the
existing config on a staging server so FP authors can update thier
individual sub webs. I do not replicate (push) the extensions from the
staging server to the live server. I will remove the htm and html ssi
mappings, recalc the new set up and try the forms. Quite the extensive
config change to test the ssi. Would there be and easier way to test??
Thanks!!

You can use a FP form in a ASP page by using the FP Include Page component t
o include the form in
the page.

I tested my changes and the banner with dhtml drop menus (top.htm) does show
up on all pages of the site. The problem is that now the dhtml drop menus
will not drop. I read on another forum that dynamic html will not work in
shared borders but thought I would ask here. If dhtml is not usable in the
top shared border and I can't use the virtual include on my htm files and
have extensions work then what?? I can change the method that FP authors
create forms with an FP include into another an asp as a last resort. Any
suggestions for the dhtml drop in the shared border would be great!! Thanks!

You can use DHTML Menus in Shared Borders or FP Include Page as long as the 
JavaScript is between
the opening and closing Body tags and all link are absolute links, not relat
ive.
