In the FAQs of HostRocket, it says:
To use FormMail.pl, you need to have your form submit to the following url:
/cgi-sys/FormMail.pl
This script is not located in your account, it is a server wide alias to a single script which is why you can't find it with your other files, and why it does not run out of your normal cgi-bin.
This is what my HTML file looks like:
<form method="post" action="/cgi-sys/FormMail.pl" ENCTYPE="Text/plain">
<input type=hidden name="recipient" value="design@lighthousewd.com">
<input type=hidden name="redirect" value="http://www.apollopicks.com/thanks.html">
<center>
<b>Email Address:</b> <input type="text" name="EmailAddyFromFreePickUser" size="30">
<input type=submit value="Get Free Pick!">
</center>
</form>
When I hit 'submit' it gives me a 404 File not Found error. Is this FAQ outdated? I tried manually uploading the 'debugged' script someone posted here and configuring it only to have recipient problems (I swear I followed the directions to the T).
Any ideas???
Thanks
