</form>[/code:1:e439519f0e]


that code above works with no problem the problem is when I input the line to redirect the submitter to a new page it cannot ever find the page and it is going to a completely opposite page I tell it to.

[code:1:e439519f0e]
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="success" VALUE="http://www.weerddesigns.com/contactsuccess.html">[/code:1:e439519f0e]

I get an error when put it anywhere in the form code including right under the form opening tag... I am puzzled. I have it working with the same type of coding on a different page and yet it doesn't work on this one. I am so frustraited with this. any help would be greatly appreciated. I am probably overlooking somthing stupid but hey we all know how that goes.

NAME="success"

Are you sure that's what that should be? I am assuming that should be NAME="redirect" or something.

Yeah pretty sure when you say name success that is telling the form that upon success load this page as oppose to the script on success. unless I am wrong but pretty sure I am right

[Jazzee]

OK. Never heard of that. But if you say so.

I can try rediredt but never herad of it let me give it a test run a min

What you need to know is probably in the script that handles the form.

[a1c1e19]

nothing different hapends with the redirect in it is almost like the coding code]<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="redirect" VALUE="http://www.weerddesigns.com/contactsuccess.html">[/code] is not there
I dunno I am open to any other types of suggestions maybe I m not placing it in the right place on the form or something. I put the redirect under the submit button and under the first coding line in the form.

[Jazzee]

Show the site that you said it works on.

nevermind it was somthing simple like I thought I had a wrong link in the success page spelled the page name wrong duh :-)

Thanks for the help
