FrontPage 02 form stops working when page name ext. changed to .asp

I have a form that submits results to my email box called TechSupport.htm (created in FrontPage 2002). It works fine. When I add a dropdown box with data from a legitimate Access .mdb (with a verified database connection), FP urges me to change the extension to .asp which I do: TechSupport.asp. Then the dropdown works fine, but the form stops working. I think the problem is because I change the name to .asp. Specifically, when I click Submit, it pauses as if it's processing, but then it returns to TechSupport.asp instead of redirecting to the form confirmation page.

I'm using Win2000 with IIS and FrontPage server extensions. I've tried it on my local machine (with a local inetpub) as well as on our corporate web server (IIS and FP extensions), but it fails in both places. Also, I have several other .asp pages that work just fine.

Any ideas?

THe page doesn't redirect. Do you still get the results in your email? Also, what are the "action" and "onSubmit" attributes of the form?

Hi Karsh44,

A couple of things:
- maybe I wasn't real clear, but the form is a FrontPage Webbot
- I don't get the email that I'm supposed to
- and the redirect (as you can see below) is supposed to be to the TechSupport_thanks2.htm, a confirmation page.
- also, after working on this for a few days, I think the problem is trying to have a .asp FrontPage webbot form send an email. I can get an .asp FrontPage webbot form to Post to another .asp page, I just can't get it to send an email or write to a database.
- I think the only option for me is to get CDONTS to work or some other way to send email

<form method="POST" action="--WEBBOT-SELF--">
<!--webbot bot="SaveResults" S-Email-Format="TEXT/PRE" S-Email-Address="jack.derrico@domain.com" B-Email-Label-Fields="TRUE" S-Builtin-Fields U-Confirmation-Url="TechSupport_thanks2.htm" --><p>

thanks in advance for your help!
jd

From what you say, I think you want to use cdonts or other aspemail component. Boo, frontpage
