There we go got there in the end. This is a slightly ammended version. Cheers for this by the way.
Okay - I think I found the problem.
Right click inside the form and select form properties.
In the form properties you will see:
C:\Documents and Settings\Alexander Graft\My Documents\Personal\White City Project\feedback\_private\
The web does not have access to this folder.
Change it to read:
http://www.whitecityprojec
This will allow the system to write to the text file and allow your form to publish correctly. I noticed your confirmation page is your home page - is this by design or are you just testing?

Hi agraft,
Your problem is that you did not put the form fields inside a form?
You just inserted the fields in the page, then after that you inserted the buttons. The form has only buttons, the fields are out of the form.
Go to Insert>Form
Then insert your fields inside the form and try.
But this way of getting the feed back is not good, unless the form is sending to your email.
If you want I can help you get the feedback stored into a database.
From the source code of your page it is obvious that the fields are outside the form.
Regards
hhammash
