I got as far as you did, but I had a different error to do with
formproccesor.php
I re-uploaded the above file and now the form works OK......

You might try to re-install .......Its a long job to check every dir/sub dir/files

that web address above is a site still under construction !!!! Is it yours ?

Later this morning I'll have time to try your suggestion. Thanks for the help, David. Yes, clarionword.com is my primary site. Lot of work to do yet. First, I am putting up two other sites that are add-ons: getreadygetsetido.com and christanddavinci.com. The latter is the one for which I built the form.

Again, thanks for the response. Have a good one. Charlieku

Well at least fmp is picking up your internal details as it displayed your email address in its error routine.

good luck and please let us know your end results....

I am posting this here because this thread has been a result of all the inherent dangers of an unprotected feedback/email form or any other form for that matter as originally discussed by Andy128 and Naval and others........

By using Form Maker Pro you can do away with most of the problems without
having to change field lengths, checking individual fields, etc.

Now create any form with inbuilt error checking, once only submission from your site, client can preview entries before submission and many more usefull items and security features........

Try it out, I have, and its free for VodaHost users.....

I am back...

I first re-uploaded formproccessor.php, but nothing changed. Still got

Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, webmaster@clarionword.com and inform them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done that may have caused the error.
More information about this error may be available in the server error log.
Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Have now deleted everything and reFTPed fmp, checked every file and folder to be sure they are there. Then reinstalled but got into trouble on the installation screen. Msg says "could not select MySQL database. All entries look right to me. I went to cPanel and deleted the first database and recreated. Still same message.

On the first install I got all the way to creating and uploading some form pages, but in test somewhere between the submission and preview pages I got the above message.

Any ideas about what I do next?

Thanks, Charlieku

Charlieku:

At what stage are you at the moment ?
Are you are at the installation screen, if so what message are you getting?

Charlieku · #67 06-18-2006, 01:08 AM

I am not at the installation screen right now, but the message I couldn't get past was "could not select MySQL database." I finally gave up in frustration -- brain dead as it were. :-/

davidundalicia · #68 06-18-2006, 11:50 PM

Charlieku: use any of the links below and either email me or leave a message using any of the forms....I will see what I can do.

No problem

With form maker pro, can you save an image into the FMP database that was placed into the form via a visitor using a browse button on the form? All form items/fields go into the FMP database , but can’t seem to get the images out of the database. IE: no link. I get this reference to the image in the database (67829928_115x57 smalest right.jpg_._file)

Thanks

Chris

For any one that needs this info on opening attachments using FMP! i got this back from form maker pro guys.

We would like to inform you that you can access your uploaded file on your FTP
server in folder "attachments" in your Form Maker Pro directory. You need to
delete "_._file" from the end of the filename. (this extension adding
automatically for the secure reasons, so nobody is unable to upload harmful
script to your server and execute it)

So, by the sound of it! it may be beter to leave as is. & recive the attachment via your email.

Cheers.

Great because I can use all the help that I can get! Thank you for your help.

I am not sure what to do form on a contact page it does not link to my email.
I am sure, I am doing something wrong but I don't know what. Open for ideas. Peace:)

Practice makes perfect. Create it and if it doesn't work, either delete it and try again or dig in and find the answer. Someone here could surely fix you right up, but what about next time? Most of all, take your time and have fun with it.

asent · #78 06-25-2006, 06:56 PM

Racefan20, I think I finally got it ( I guess I played with long enough).
Thank you for your note.
