    Cannot run the FrontPage server extensions on this page

I'm having trouble emailing a form to myself that I created.  GoDaddy is my
host and I'm using their form handler and I've enabled server extensions;
however, I keep getting this error message.  Also, I've only been able to
upload via ftp.  When I try to switch to http I get this message:

"Unable to open 'http://ntouchnow.com.
Server error:
Possible causes:
1. The web server may not have the FrontPage Server Extensions installed.
2.  The web server may be temporarily out of service.
3. IF you are connecting through a proxy server, the proxy settings may be
incorrect.
4. An error may have occurred in the web server.

If this server does not support the FrontPage Server Extensions, FrontPage
may still be able to publish to the server via FTP."

Please note that I tried un-installing and re-installing the server
extensions but to no avail.  Since I'm using GoDaddy's server-side form
handler, I set the Form Properties window to "Send to Other:  Custom ISAPI,
NSAPI, CGI, or API Script".  Here is a line in my code I've been tooling wit
h:
<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="gdform.asp" input type="hidden" name="subject"
value="Form submission" input type="hidden" name="redirect"
value="confirmation.html" E-Mail:<input type="text" name="email"
value="cbrothers@ntouchnow.com">>

Any suggestions?  Thanks!

The form, if as below, will never work.  Try something like:
<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="gdform.asp">
<input type="hidden" name="subject" value="Form submission">
<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="confirmation.html">
<p> E-Mail:<input type="text" name="email"
value="cbrothers@ntouchnow.com"></p>
</form>

Using FTP will corrupt the FrontPage extensions, but this form does
not require them.  If you intend to use the extensions then they may
need to be re-installed, or at least checked.  Either use
Tools->Server->Administration Home, Login (again) and run Server
Health
Or ask GoDaddy to do this for you if the option is not available.

Since you have ftp'd, the extensions are now corrupt and you'll need to
contact your host to install them.

You must http publish.

instead of: http://ntouchnow.com, use http:///www.ntouchnow.com
