Morning All,

Everytime I try to sumbit the online FCD registration form I get a URL not found on this server error.

I'm using FireFox...not sure if this causes the fault, it does cause issues with some other websites. Anyone care to have a guess at whats wrong (or even better suggest a fix!)?

Cheers

Nick

I really should read my thread titles before posting :)

To follow up, I've just tried to sumbit using IE rather than FireFox and I still get the same error....

Checked the web page and it is submitting to a Logica server, which is apparently happening OK, then redirecting back to the 2004 programme of events on our servers; which funnily enough is no longer there. My guess is the submission is working OK but no one has ever bothered updating the redirect.

Checked the web page and it is submitting to a Logica server...It's going where???I've checked the source code of the page containing both the 'Join' and the 'Submit' buttons, in both cases they say -

<form action="profile.php" method="post"...

So I can't see any way that it's heading off into the blue yonder. You're not using some weird kind of proxy server are you that prevents form submission are you?

The form tag and relevant bits just after it are

<FORM METHOD="GET" ACTION="http://ss105.logika.net/cgi-bin/ss_query">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="recipient" VALUE="fcd.reg@bsac.com">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="subject" VALUE="First Class Diver Registration Form">
<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="http://www.bsac.org/events/poe2004index.htm">


There are no scripts in the page that modify the action

THAT page - I thought you meant the forums! Yup, it's a bug - but there's all kinds of grief up there on the old server with file permissions, I can't instantly fix it. I'll report it and try to get it sorted.
