Form Builder 2.4 No Output

I've made several attempts to test a form and the output remains same:

Dispatch(); } else { if( ! isset( $_GET['action'] ) ) $myPage->ReportStats( 'NotifyFormView' ); } ob_start(); $myPage->Show(); ob_end_flush(); ?>

Help!

You cannot test a form in preview. You need to upload the form to your server to test it out.

That's the problem. I did upload it and tested it on the web several times with the same result:

Dispatch(); } else { if( ! isset( $_GET['action'] ) ) $myPage->ReportStats( 'NotifyFormView' ); } ob_start(); $myPage->Show(); ob_end_flush(); ?>

What do I do now?

Do you have a link to the form so we can look at it ?

Does your server meet the minimum requirements for the form builder?

I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.

Larry, make a file that you call info.php and paste the following contents into it:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>php info</title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
phpinfo();
?>
</body>
</html>

Then upload it to your server.
Afterwards navigate to the file with your browser: www.yourdomain.com/info.php .
If you get a long list of php specs, then you have php, and it might be a question of updating the version. If you don't get any info, well, then ask your hosting provider to install php, or find another host.
Ha en riktig god dag!

Everyone,

Thanks for the help. I use Superb.net and have done as you have said with the info.php file; it returns a long list of specs, so I have php on the server. I've used Form Builder with success before and have updated to 2.4 build 5313. The link to the form is:

file:///I:/Parish%20WebSite%20-%20html/Files/FaithFormation/XmasDrive_exported/XmasDrive/XmasDrive.html

I'm still having problems. Any other ideas?

Everyone, my apologies. I looked at the link of the above missive and it hit me. I was actually testing the form on my hard drive. I tested it on the net and it works perfectly.

You can close this thread.

have updated to 2.4 build 5313

Current version is Build 5318. I'd update again!

file:///I:/Parish%20WebSite%20-%20html/Files/FaithFormation/XmasDrive_exported/XmasDrive/XmasDrive.html

%20 in your file or html is usually a 'space'. It's becoming bad to use spaces in your path and/or filenames as some browsers don't treat them fairly. I'd get rid of any spaces that you have, update WFB, and see what happens.

By the way...what is the PathToYourWebsite dot com ? I have no idea what to do with that 'file:///'
