> Every time I make a change to that form it breaks the email feature.

ahhhh... thats a whole separate issue/hassle/pita than anything i've talked about on this thread.

Here's the scoop:

When FrontPage extensions are installed on a webserver, it asks for a site email name with the default being noone@somewhere.com. Most idiot tech support folks at an ISP will blow right past this and leave the default address in there. So right off the bat, if your using frontpage forms that send email, before you ever publish it you need to uninstall frontpage extensions on the webserver and then reinstall and specify a valid email address.

What's worse is, in FrontPage98 as long as the form properties had a valid email address specified the installation email address was completely ignored. Thus the tendency of ISP techs to ignore it when installing extensions. Not quite so in FrontPage2000, for some stupid reason even though the email address specified in form properties is utlimately used for transmitting messages, if the installation email address isnt a valid address the process of publishing the form that is set to send email trashes things. It's like a self destructive process with no warning given whatsoever during the publishing process.

The forms that seem to be tripped by this the most are forms originally created in FrontPage98 for some other odd reason. Me personally, I prefer to set the installation email address to the webmaster's personal email address. Because there are few things that get sent via this install email address telling you that all hell is breaking loose on your site. Then I set a cosmetic email address/alias on a form (i.e. orders@mydomain.com). But I've had 2 problem forms out of about 7 or 8 forms, that evolved from FrontPage98 into FrontPage2000, and for some reason email submission went south no matter what. Like you, everytime I published one of those two pages, everything broke. Two entirely different web projects and 2 different servers to boot. The resolution was to make the installation email exactly the same as the form's email and life was good... go figure.

HTH.
