I am new in web design, I have designed a site with Forms on it using Frontpage Web editor but the form is giving error report and one of the form is not giving any report at all but it is not equally working. The two site can be found in the link below:

http://www.nigeriabusinessmap.com/ORDER%20FORM.htm

http://www.nigeriabusinessmap.com/Singles_Subscription_form.htm

I want to know what to do to make it work and I will also want to attach an invoice respond to the first form and I will want the form result sent to an email address.

Thanks for your help.

@pastor: Your first link is a 404.

Your form needs an "action" attribute that tells the form where to send the data to, eg:


<form method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data" action="processForm.php">


You then need a form processing script (eg processForm.php) that reads the form values and emails them. You can write this script yourself, or find plenty at http://www.hotscripts.com/category/scripts/php/scripts-programs/form-processors/ .

You might also want to try this:
