Question: Need Help with Neighbor's Web Site? My neighbor had to create a web site for a school project. The purpose is to have people fill out a survey regarding written and video material dealing with 9/11. She is having a couple of problems with it. First, there are some videos embedded in the site and she can't get them to to play.   Second, she can't figure out how to make the submit button submit the survey once the user has filled it out.  Probably has something to do with cgi, but neither of us know what we're doing with the cgi software. The website is at http://www.september11media.org/

Answer: The problem with the video clips is the path to the clip is the path found on the computer, not the path on the server.\nWhat it is:\nhref="file:///C:/Documents and Settings/ Johannah/My Documents /fightclubclip05.wmv\n\nWhat it should be:\nsrc=path name/fightclubclip05.wmv\n_______________________________________________________\nIf you want the form to be emailed to you from the users client (which most people don't want to do or can't do if they have web based email) you need 'mailto:' after action ie:\naction=mailto:your.email.\n\nIf you are using a cgi script, you need to call the script.\naction=path/name of script  - You need the full URL to the script\n\nYou can use this free form building service for much easier implimentation.\nhttp://www.response-o-matic.com/
