I can not seem to get my form to view. Its blank.

I checked the files and directories and am pretty sure I have everything in the correct place.

the form is called giving.fb

the form is in the root directory.

http://www.waypointcc.me/donate.html

inside the root I have the /cartapp_v1 folder
the /giving folder
and there is a giving.php file in the root.


UGH - I'm bafflled.

Did you try uploading all the files again?
I can't hear what I'm looking at.

Ya. Tried several times. Deleted old files, re-exported the form from CoffeeCup and re uploaded. Also tested in several browser to no avail.

I think you may have done your setup wrong. Copy the script provided by the form builder to your page. Now upload all the files inside the giving_exported to the same directory as the page with the form script.

I'm not sure what I am missing. I attached a screen shot below.

I have the folder "giving_exported". Underneath I have the three folders and giving.php.

I want the form in my root folder on the server.

so the script is copied directly into a plain jane html file called

donate.html which I have placed in the root directory

So I would think you would have in the root site

/
/giving.php
/giving
/cartapp_v1
/_notes


If the form is in the root, would not these folders be in the root?

BTW - cool dog. I have two Labs - one English the other American sport.

Thanks....TO

Hiya Tim,

I think you missed what Eric said above. You don't put the _exported folder into your root directory (well you can but it won't do any good). You take the folder and PHP file inside that folder and put "those" into the directory that your form page is in. So if your form page is not in the root, then put those files into the directory that donate.html is in.

Tim, if you look at the Form Exported Dialog, read each step carefully. There is fully detailed instructions on what to do. Pay close attention to Step 2. There is even a button that you can click which will take you directly to the folder where the files are stored. All you need to do is upload those files to your server.

DO NOT upload the _exported folder itself. Only upload the CONTENTS of that folder. ;)

Or you can do what I do and change the giving_exported folder to giving and upload that whole thing, then adjust the script.;)
<script type="text/javascript">document.write(unescape("%3Ciframe id=\"fb_iframe\" src=\"giving/giving.php" + window.location.search + "\" width=\"802\" height=\"1386\"allowtransparency=\"true\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\"%3E&lt;a href=\"giving/giving.php\" title=\"giving\"&gt;Check out my CoffeeCup Form&lt;/a&gt;%3C/iframe%3E"));</script>
<noscript>
<iframe width="802" height="1386" style="border:none; background:transparent; overflow:hidden;"
id="fb_iframe" src="giving/giving/giving.html">
&lt;a href="giving/giving.php" title="giving"&gt;Check out my CoffeeCup Form&lt;/a&gt;
</iframe>
</noscript>

I'm not trying to be arguementative, but I showed you in the pictures as well as explained I am not uploading the giving_exported folder. I am uploading the contents of the giving_exported folder to the root directory


even so - why would

http://www.waypointcc.me/giving/giving.html
and

http://www.waypointcc.me/giving.php
be blank?
