Q: My form that was working yesterday is not working today?

A: If you have not changed your form or processing code in any way then your server must have changed. Form1's only depend on their own code and the servers they are hosted on. So if they stop working something in the Form1 form code or processing code has changed or something on the server has changed. If you continue to have problems and nothing related to your form has changed then it must be a server issue. In this case contact your server host and advise them that it appears the php mail function (if it is a form delivery issue) is no longer running correctly and ask for them to restore it.

Q: I want to buy your form to mysql script, but my hosting is yahoo, they don't allow to get access to mysql from remote, can i still use your software? Is it just like an online form, and then people can fill in, after people click submit, it will goes to mysql directly?

A: Form1 Builder MYSQL uses your MYSQL database, and the form is run on your server so there should be no remote access issues. Basically when you submit a form and it is processed by the Form1 MYSQL processing code it will add the submitted data to your database. So yes when people click to submit the form data goes straight into MYSQL. For more detail please read the Help file https://bizpep.com/form1/ .

Q: I have got a secure site (https) now and created password entry into a secure folder (called secure). I have put the forms that were working into there but when they submit it does not work. It says: Method Not Allowed The requested method POST is not allowed for the URL

A: This is usually a server setup issue. Your secure server is not allowing post data (which is how the form is submitted). You should check adjust the server settings to allow post data. If you are only trying to make access to the form require a password then you are probably best off using the Access Password feature in the Form1 processing code and running the form in a normal http server. If you want to send the form data securely then running the form on a secure server ie https does not achieve this unless the form data is sent via a secure transmission, normal email is not secure. You would need to use a secure transmission for the email data or (preferably) submit the data directly to a secure database (ie MYSQL). However disregarding the transmission issue once your server is correctly configured you can run form1 processing on on both dedicated or shared secure https servers. You can see an example quickform running on a secure server at https://bizpep.c12.ixsecure.com/quickform.php . Hope this helps.

Q: We host most of our site on a windows server which does not support php. Can I have the html form on that site and point to the script on a server that supports php? I'm assuming I would need to purchase another user license.

A: Yes you can point non php supporting server forms to a processing code on a php server (this is how the hosted processing service http:// bizpep.com works). You would need a license for each domain that calls the processor.
