Error when sending from results to email

I have followed the instruction found at :
http://www.frontpagehowto.com/dbandemail.htm
After publishing it to my webserver i get the following error:

"FrontPage Run-Time Component Page

You have submitted a form or followed a link to a page that requires a web
server and the FrontPage Server Extensions to function properly.

This form or other FrontPage component will work correctly if you publish
this web to a web server that has the FrontPage Server Extensions installed.
Click the <Back> arrow to return to the previous page."

I was wondering what am I missing to get this to work?

thanks in advance.

1) Are the FP server extensions installed on the host server?
2) Does the host have the proper cdonts and asp installed on the server?
3) Have you checked with them to see if the instructions you followed from
that link will work with them?

1) yes
2) I am the host. I have installed asp as I have other asp pages that are
working, not sure about cdonts.
3) The instructions that i followed should work as it's not the only site
that i have found those step, namely somewhere on the microoft site.

Anything else?

Hi Mr. Know Nothing,

I haven't seen your original post, so I'm really guessing about what the
question is. However, I can tell you that the most common problem with using
an SMTP server is the Relay settings on the SMTP server. Does your SMTP
server allow emails from addresses outside of its domain?

Unfortunately I do not. My server never worked right to do
the email in the first place so I wrote my own form handler
to do what you seek.

I wrote an ASP page that submits to the database and sends
the email via CDONTS. If you can script the sql statement
to get it into the db, then you will be able to do the mail
portion of it no problem.

That text comes from nortbots.htm
Open the page in a browser, and check the form's action attribute or
onsubmit attributes. It probably has _derived/nortbots.htm in there.

nortbots.htm only appears in four cases:
1) You are testing on a disc-based website
2) You are testing on a website that does not have server extensions
installed or running
3) The site (or form page) was FTPed from a disc-based web, or
published using a FTP address for the destination. Publish must be to
a URL of the form http://example.com
4) There is a bug associated with FrontPage98 which causes this
problem.
