Thread: Problems with Contact Page

Could someone please look at my Contact Page and let me know why it doesn't work. http://www.webworldaffiliates.com/ If you need more information, let me know what is needed. Regards, David

You need to go to:
http://www.vodahost.com/tut_bluevoda.htm

and review totally
Forms (1)
and
Forms(2)

this will guide you on how to set up a form

Looking at your page it seems you have placed
the form details on your page but have not actually set it up

take a look at the tutorials above

I read and listened to the tutorials at least a dozen times and can't see where i failed to follow the instructions. Here is the page URL, maybe that will help setting me straight.
http://www.machiningbythebook.com/webworldaffiliates/Contact%20Us.html

I've already spent two full days trying to get it done but to no avail. Thanks for any help you can offer. regards, David

Here's the message I get when I press Submit Button:

The requested URL /action.php was not found on this server.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.




David

Did you design your "thankyou" page and insert the coding into it.

This is the coding that is required, you need to edit the black text

<?PHP
$mailto = "your email";
$email = $HTTP_POST_VARS['email'];
if ($email == "") {
$email = $mailto;
}
$mailsubj = "Form Application";
$mailhead = "From: $email\n";
reset ($HTTP_POST_VARS);
$mailbody = "Values submitted from web site form :\n";
while (list ($key, $val) = each ($HTTP_POST_VARS))
{
if ($key!="submit")
{
$mailbody .= "$key : $val\n";
}
}
mail($mailto, $mailsubj, $mailbody, $mailhead);
?>
=====================

"Form Application : change this to whatever you want
the subject to be in your notification email

Your thankyou page must be a PHP not html
then save page as action

to do this:
while your "thank you" page is open in your
voda builder right click anywhere on page and
select page properties , then make sure that
"file extension" displays "php", then click OK

now save page as action then publish

Your form should work ok now

Done this, now the error message I get is :
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '<' in /home/ftmqzxz/public_html/webworldaffiliates/action.php on line 41

Any more suggestions? David

Yo have probably forgotten the closing php tag ?> in the code you pasted in your action page

Thanks. Everything got staraightened out. Regards, David
