[Pro] Send Form Action

Hi

I’ve just made this form in BackDraft. Put it on the server and tested it but keep getting this error message:

‘You don’t have permission to access /test/business/ on this server.’

What am I doing wrong (Be Kind, it’s been a long day.) with the design of the form??

Regards

Lee

Are you using some htaccess tricks to remove filename suffixes?

If so that may be the cause of this

Hi David

Have removed .htaccess file but have got 15 lines of the following: FW_SendForm_form_twoLeft.php

Also, I’m now getting: The requested URL /test/business/form was not found on this server.

Lee,

The duplicates of the SendForm.php file is a known bug with the action when applied to an inline element.

Typically, when I start getting odd 404 errors, I first delete everything from the server and the local “Site Folder” that Freeway uses. Then, in Freeway, I do a “Publish Everything” (⌃⌘P) followed by an “Upload” (⌘U).

If you have to extension-hiding going on, then it is expected that /test/business/form would return a 404. However, if I try /test/business/form.html it’s continuing to redirect me to /test/business/form . :confused:

BTW, nice looking site!

Hi Caleb

Have just tried what you suggested but it still doesn’t work. I’ve done a search on the server for a htaccess file but there isn’t one. This is the least of my problems.

Any other ideas as to resolving this little problem.

Thanks for your help.

If your URLs aren’t ending in a .html or .php or .something, then you must have done something to get that effect. It’s popular to want to make URLs that look “cool”, but seriously, unless you are writing your own server software (Rails, Symphony, CakePHP) making your URLs look like this is just eye candy. Turn this effect off, however you added it, and I bet your form will start working.

What Walter said. To find your .htaccess file, don’t forget to set your FTP app to show hidden files.

Also, using your favorite FTP application, check the permissions on the /test/business/ folder. It should be rwxr-xr-x (aka 755). The files therein should typically be rw-r--r-- (aka 644).

Hi Walter

I removed the offending .htaccess file right from the start and I cannot find any other htaccess files on the server that relate to removing the html extension from the file but it still keeps redirecting you to /test/business/form :frowning:

Caleb: I have checked the permissions and have changed one of them.

First thing I would do is simplify your form ie remove the validate actions and see if it works then.

You can then add the validation back in, field by field until it fails.

At the moment I am seeing a problem with email validation.

Hi All

Found the problem, thanks David for pointing me in the right direction. Played around with the file names, changed ‘form.html’ to ‘form1.html’ and it worked. So for the time being I’m leaving alone.

Do you know a good ‘responsive interactive calendar’ that would fit into backdraft.

Thanks for your help David, Walter and Caleb.

Hi Lee, I have used full calendar http://arshaw.com/fullcalendar/ combined with google calendar.

Hopefully with the release of Freeway 7 or the next version of FW 6. Just to repeat, this bug won’t keep your form from working, all it will do is clutter your server with a bunch of unused php files.
