I need to get a webpage hosted. Can someone help me? This is my first time here at InfinityFree

KangJL,

After renaming the HTML, I tested the webpage in a browser and it showed on my computer screen.

I do not see any action assigned to your submit button.

Please read this thread for more details

KangJL,

I’m having a hard time understanding exactly what it is they are telling me to do on the Formspree website. Below, I provided a screenshot of the code to the form on my webpage. Please tell me what I must put into the code to ensure it is delivering me the information I need. Thanks!

On the form tag, you’ll need to add an action attribute with as value the URL Formspree gives you (which is https://formspree.io/f/yourformid, replacing yourformid with the ID of your form) and also add a method attribute with value POST. Then you’re done! The final form start tag will look like this:

<form action="https://formspree.io/f/yourformid" method="POST">

replacing yourformid with the ID of your form on Formspree. So if you don’t understand me in the first score, you can just copy the start tag, paste it instead of <form> and you’re done!

Hi JxstErg1,

I’m messaging you from church using my mobile phone. Can we do this over the phone? This is taking much longer than I thought it would take?

You can also edit the HTML file normally through the phone just to add those two attributes or replacing the form start tag with the example I showed you and the form ID I put as an example with the form ID you got from Formspree.

JxstErg1,

Look at the image below and tell me if I got the code inserted correctly. According to the information, I got on the Formspree website, my form’s endpoint is: https://formspree.io/f/mwkjdjjo

I’ve highlighted the code I inserted in blue.

Remove > from the starting form tag and add it after the method attribute. But other than that you’re done!

EDIT: By “add it after the method attribute” I mean to add it after you closed it, not right before the = that represents the value to give to the attribute.

Hi JxstErg1,

Let me see if I understand you correctly: You are saying - Remove the > sign from the form tag and place it at the end of the word “POST”. Am I correct?

After you closed the POST quotes, yeah.

JxstErg1,

Look at the image below and tell me if I inserted the code the way you said it should be inserted.

All right! Now I recommend to separate the action and method attributes with a space in between the closing quote of the action attribute and the method word to make a clean work.

Are you asking me to delete the = sign to the right of the action and method attributes and leave a space between both? Or were you asking me to leave a space between the = sign to the right of both of these attributes?

You’re wrong there on both points. After you close the quote with the URL of the endpoint on the action attribute and before the method word, you should put the space.

Yes, the equal sign is on both points! That’s what I had mentioned to you. It is to the right of the both the action and method attributes.

What I was asking you was: Were you asking me to delete the = sign to the right of the action and method attributes and leave a space between both or leave a space between the = sign to the right of both of these attributes?

Look at the image below and tell me whether or not I did this correctly. A space was made between the endpoint of the URL on the action attribute and before the method word.

By the image you sent me, now that’s right! You don’t have to do anything else now (not even detaching the equal signs or remove them). Just save the file and test it!

Sounds great! I will test it on the Formspree website. Once I get the form working correctly, I will then need to update this code in the code for my entire webpage. And then delete original file from the server that does not have the update code and replace it with the one that does. Please confirm with me whether what I said I should do next is correct.

You’re right! Let’s cross our fingers and hope it works… :crossed_fingers:

JxstErg1,

I perform three tests with the information form for my clients early yesterday morning after my last chat with you. The form was successfully submitted during each of the three tests. Each were sent to the spam folder but I transferred them to inbox. And it showed all the information I typed into the form.
