You need PHP 5.2 or later (I recommend 5.3). You have 5.1.

Hi Steven,
You need a more recent version of PHP!
If I run Walter’s script I get a section just after the exif section called “filter”, which shows"Input Validation and Filtering" enabled.
My host uses PHP 5.3.21
Your host may have an update script - you need to talk to your hosting provider and get them to update the PHP version or switch provider.

I have a similar problem using send form.
It’s done as per the instruction video, but when uploaded if I fill the form in and send I immediately get a download:
FW_SendForm_index.php instead of an email to my test address??
Any ideas?
thanks

Your server is not properly configured for PHP files. This is vanishingly rare – where are you hosting this?

File a support ticket and ask them to enable PHP on that server. As I said, it’s completely rare to find a host that doesn’t have PHP installed and working by default. If they can’t/won’t, inform the client that they must move. You can’t swing a cat without hitting a host for less than $10/month with a recent-ish install of PHP/MySQL/Apache. Even if the domain was purchased from this host, that doesn’t mean you have to actually host the site there. You just need to update the DNS to indicate where the actual Web/E-mail server(s) is/are.

My hosting company has confirmed they are using PHP 5.3.3
I’ve gone back and redone the form (religiously following the send form youtube clip from softpress) but I still keep getting an immediate download of the FW_SendForm_index.php rather than the email response that I should.
Driving me crazy I have to say. Any further ideas?
thanks

File a support ticket with your hosting provider. The PHP file should under no circumstances download when requested. That’s a frank security failure on their part. If they have PHP 5.3.3 installed, that’s great. But they have to have enabled PHP in Apache and set the file-type handler to pass the PHP files requested from your Web server to the PHP interpreter for execution. That is categorically not happening, given the error you’re reporting. You’re the second person this week with this same sad tale. Who is your host?

Walter,
thanks again I forwarded your message to the hosting company and it was working within minutes once they had obviously done what you had said!

Hi,
I don’t want to install PHP just for the feedback form action in FW Pro 6. Instead I’d like to use the older PERL version of the form mailer. But how? It’s no longer an option in Freeway…

There was never ever a version of any Action for Perl. I promise you. Many ISPs provide a version of “FormMail.pl” on their servers, and the only integration possible is to set up a bunch of hidden form elements to direct the submission process, and to set the form’s Action property (in the Page / Form Setup dialog) to point to the path of that script.

I’d also be very startled if you had to install PHP. The interpreter is standard on 99.9999% of the servers I have ever found. Versions vary, naturally, but presence? You would have a harder time finding a host that didn’t have it configured as standard.

Hi Walter,
Then you’d be startled now because I haven’t (intentionally) installed PHP on my web server. I did install my server from scratch and have only installed the minimum of required software for security reasons. Never needed PHP and don’t want to install it just for the Send-Form-Action of FW6. So my server seems to be of the 0,0001% 
Regarding PERL and hidden form elements: Yes, looks like that’s exactly what I had done on my other website with FW5. Guess since I don’t want to install PHP I’ll have to go that road again.
Thanks for your reply, anyway. Much appreciated!
Best,
Ace
