I cannot get the action php feedback form to work with godaddy. When I click the Submit button it takes me back to the home page. When I click anywhere in the blue background it takes me back to the home page. I followed their directions exactly yet I cannot get it to work. Does anyone out there have the secret to this mess? Thank you, Anne
You should apply your background image background2.jpg by looking in the Page inspector with nothing selected on the page. Click the paintbrush icon and then use the bg image selector to choose your bg image. Assuming that you want to apply it to the whole browser window.
If you have a look at http://www.deltadesign.co/formtest.html you will see how I have used a table to hold my form elements together. (Borders showing for clarity)
You have also used ‘Text Area’ boxes in your form which can be resized in the Browser by dragging their bottom Right hand corners to totally screw up your form. Try it.
Instead use ‘Text Fields’ for name, email, age etc and only use a ‘Text Area’ for your Message box which will have indeterminate content.
Your site is trying to load your FW document as a background image on all pages apart from the contact page - it must be something that you have done on the Master
Thank you so much for all of this important information. As you can tell I am new at this. My forte is publishing and marketing. I will apply these suggestions to my website this morning and hope that I can get everything working correctly. I cannot thank you enough for your time and knowledge. All the best, Anne
OK D, I have done all that you said an applied the php feedback action as directed by GoDaddy. But still my contact page is not responding. Have you any ideas? Thank you, Anne
Just dropping in to ask how did you get the email address part of the form to validate, I have a form I wish to do this on but the PHP Feedback Form action refuses to validate the email address even if it is left blank! It just sends the form anyway with all the errors.
Bye the way, the icons on the form are pretty neat!
Thanks,
Steve.

Make sure that the Name attribute on your email input field is set to email. Just like that: all one word, all lower-case. The Name setting is made using the Inspector, in the third tab from the left. Don’t be misled by whatever is in the Title field on the left-most tab.
