Hello, The CC Volunteer form on the WVGenWeb state page is broken. Whenever I try to change the file volunteer.htm to writable I receive the following error message. SITE chmod 777 volunteer.htm 553 Permission denied on server. (chmod) ! Chmod failed. It may not be supported on remote host. What have I forgotten or what am I missing? Les Shockey

Write permissions should be changed ONLY for an output page, i.e. a page where the form input is written to an output page by the server. Your form calls a script hosted by form action="http://www.response-o-matic.com/cgi-bin/rom.pl" You will need to contact response-o-matic.com if you are having problems with their script. Pat

Thanks Pat. I have tried twice to contact the person who set this up for the WVGenWeb Project. No answer so far and she has always answered within hours, not days. Since I do not have her account info for response-o-matic, I am not able to follow up on this right now. If I do not hear anything soon I may need to create a new one and go from there.
