I have a my own server space and have designed several client's pages with forms. After the user submits the form, the page will either go to the success page or error page. I know web design very well. It works on my server. But once I transfer the pages to my clients server to go live, the exact same page will not work. My question is this: Is there something that I must ask the administrator to enable in order for the forms to go to the success page without failing? I have short deadlines left, and I'm beating my head up against a wall. Any suggestions?

here is example pages:

On my server: http://www.ag-advertising.com/contact1.html
Other server: http://www.tarheeltractor.com/contact1.html
Other server: http://www.bandhcs.com/contact1.html

you may need to call the script something other than cgiemail. try renaming it to cgiemail.pl or cgiemail.cgi.

make sure the script is CHMODed to execute for everyone (755, i think)

posting the script here would help us more.
