Hi there,
I am having problems on a form I have created and uploaded to my website. I have saved it and reloaded it 5x following all the instructions. This is my first website, so I am wondering if I have done something wrong and now at a loss on what to do next. The link is below to the page with the form on it. Any ideas?
Thank you

Can you tell us what the "problem" is? Are you getting an error message? Is the for not sending?

One suggestion for starters is to remove the blank spaces in file names that you use for the web.
www. et.../ETC and ALTEZANO.html is difficult for the web browser to read, and it has to put %20 wherever you have a space. You can use underscore _ or just no space at all.
my web site .com = not good
my_web_page.com = good
mywebpage.com = good

Your form did appear on the page, but I don't what to look for from there until you tell us what the specific problem is.

Sorry about that, I was half asleep. The problem is when I go to submit the form - it sends me to another page stating:

Method Not Allowed
The requested method POST is not allowed for the URL /coffee_order_form.php.
------------
Apache/1.3.26 Ben-SSL/1.48 Server at www.etcservices.co.nz Port 80

Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks for the other hints. I have renamed the pages.

Do you know if your web host is running a Windows server? If it is Windows, you have to set the form to run with ASP, not PHP. You can do that in the form settings. If it is not Windows, then you use the PHP setting.

The error does mention Apache. It'd sooner support PHP, but it's possible neither are set up. If you're hosting with ihug, it appears they don't offer support for either:

Actually, it does say this on the page after listing what it does not support:
"If you find your website is not compatible with our servers, we can also hook you up with specialist hosting packages that start from a monthly cost of $20."
I'm not very knowledgeable in currency, but I hope those prices aren't in US dollars, 'cause that's rather expensive. Annual, monthly, & setup fees for a whopping 30-60MB. Ouch.

Have something to add? We’d love to hear it!
