Still need help with FORMS!

[avinsinanan]

Hello,
I have posted a few questions about forms and stuff and I have gotten a lot of help. However I am still so so very confused. I have tried everything... and still I am confused.
So I am going to write by problem in detail and all that I have tried.. and if anyone out there can help me again ,please do.

So here it is:
I am creating a from on my web site:

http://www.angelfire.com/clone/sstech/

On my web site I have a button.. when that button is pressed a form comes up on another page.

The form has 3 fields.. NAME, EMAIL, and MESSAGE.

The name of the main page is index.html and index.swf and obviously i have uploaded this to my web site.

The name of the Form is From.html and Form.swf

Now That is the only 4 files I have uploaded to the web site. I have NO other files.

The code I used for the SEND button on the form is:

on (release) {
loadVariablesNum ("mailto:

http://www.angelfire.com/formmail.cgi",

1, "POST"
}


And whenever I press the send button Nothing happens.

I am assuming if I upload the formail.cgi file to the web site in the same directory as the index and Form files it will work. But this is not so! WHen I do so and press the send button Angelfire tells me they cannot find that page!

What to do! HELP! I am totally confused!

I don't know what instructions Angelfire give you on how to access their cgi-bin but should you have "mailto" in the url address?

Also cgi scripts are normally kept in a seperate folder on the server, usally called bin, cgi-bin, or something similiar.

It is possible you do not have the correct path to formail.cgi in your url.
