Im trying to create a web based form for a school project. I will need to be
able to enter data into it and have it added to a database for use in other
areas of the project. I make the form, create a database connection in the
form properties. But when i preview it in browser it comes up with a load of
html. Can anyone help?

Are you publishing and testing this on a Windows 2000 / 2003 Server running IIS and having the
FP2000 or FP2002 extensions?

You need to be viewing the pages on an ASP-enabled server running IIS and the FP
server extensions for your version of Frontpage.

ASP pages won't preview in the browser - it will warn you about having to publish
the pages first to a web server.
