I am a complete moron when it come to using cgi, but I have a form on my company business that I am trying to get FormMail to work on and I just can't figure it out for love nor money.

I can get the form to work perfectly on my website the way it is setup right now, but because the form asks for some personal contact information, I am havng fits trying to get it to work on the secure server.

From my home page, when someone clicks on the link to this particualr form, I set the form and the FormMail.pl up on the secured server. The only thing I did to the script was to change the Form Action to the secured server address.

When I try to submit the form from the secured server, it tells me that page can't be found.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Vance

Determine if the problem is the form code, the script, or the https connection/paths.

Make sure you're using proper paths by testing the https connection outside of the form.
Once that works, proceed with the form.
