Topic: Customizing Form Templates Using MS Frontpage |

I'm in the process of trying to customize the html templates using MS Frontpage. All the template webpages that don't have a form function in them are able to be customized and work perfectly. When I revise a template that contains a form (i.e. Add_URL, Rate_it, Review_it, ...) the form itself will not work. The webpage looks fine with my revisions, but I just keep clicking the button with no response.
When I make a few minor revisions to the webpage using Notepad, then FTP it up the the data directory, it works fine. I would much prefer to use Frontpage to complete my customization though.
Any suggestions.

Try the following.
Only use the editor. Don't use the explorer that comes with frontpage. The explorer will try to make sense of the templates and change paths which most likely can cause this.
If the above don't work, save the file in front page as usual. Then open it via notepad. Look for something that looks like this:
form method="POST" action="::unsaved/!!tsearch!!"
Remove the '::unsaved/' part. The action= part should only contain one variable word which should be a word enclosed by !!
