Question

Form Returns a 404 error

Can anyone help with this?

I have a simple form that allows you to do the first page and review your answers, but when trying to submit the form after review it gives you a 404 error, page not found. And I know that page is there, so I don't understand what is happening. I don't see anything wrong with the code. But here is the Submit portion of the code.

<div style="margin-left:280px;"><p><br />

      <button class="btnSubmit" type="submit" value="Submit" onClick="if(this.value == 'Submit') this.form.submit(); this. value = 'Please Wait...';">Submit >></button></div>

  </cfform>

</cfoutput>

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks

Ruby

    Well, does the page that the form is submitting to exist? I.e. the content of the action="" attribute? What's the content of that? And what's in the URL bar when you get the 404?

    Yes, the page exists.

    <cfform action="subgroup3a.cfm" method="post" class="meetingform"><p>Please review the information below for accuracy.  If you need to make changes, click the appropriate section's <strong>Edit Info</strong> link below.</p>

    And when you hit the page you get to that url...

    Here is the URL of the form if that helps, and I can paste code in as well, if thats helps also.

    Let me know what else you might need.

    Thanks
