Hi I originally was put on a linux server and my webpage
had a form that was emailed to me successfully.  Then they
changed me over to a windows server with fp extensions and
asp.  Now my form that sends email does not work anymore.
I made the form using the form template in fp2002. They
told me that the old form was made using PERL and now I
have to rewrite the form so that it is compatible with a
windows server.  I use fp2002 and windows melenium. Can
some one try to explain this to me again so that I know
where to start to correct the problem. I thought that the
form was designed using asp. In the form page wizard does
it matter if I select "save results to a web page"
or "save results to a text file" or "use custom CGI
script. thanks Jerry

Since your server now has the FP SE you can use them to process the form ins
tead of using ASP or CGI
Make sure you have enabled the support of the in Tools Page Options Compatib
ility / Authoring
Then in the wizard to can select to send to either type of file and / or ema
il (if your host has enabled Email Transport under the
FP SE)
