Me and my ISP both don't know what we're doing!

Hello,
I'm using FrontPage 2000 on a Win95 machine. I've built me a beginner's web
site at http://www.acquirelanguagenow.com .
I loaded Microsoft's Personal Web Server on my 95 machine and "Published
Web" to my localhost. Everything ran fine. I've got one form and by me
loading FrontPage Server extensions on my machine, an email was sent to the
appropriate address and a user copy is generated so that the customer can
check their information. I "Publish Web" to my host site (host is wwip.com)
and the form doesn't work. We chat and email for a week and then they
finally load up the right version of Front Page Server Extensions. Only
problem is that a ton of my formatting is whacked. I reloaded(Publish Web)
and the form functionality went away. They fix it on their end and I lose
formatting on text, navigation bars disappear, my theme is gone, etc....
The form is at http://www.acquirelanguagenow.com/newpage_2.html

Please realize that this is a work in progress and I'm a novice.

Sorry for the long post but I wanted to be clear about the problem

Thanks for any help - Chris

Hi Chris,

I'm not sure what you think is missing. There is no Theme tag in the page,
and I went to the home page to check it out. The Theme specified on the home
page is "none." I clicked the "Click here to view web site" link on the home
page and got to another page that had no theme tag in it. The page you
mentioned does have a navigation tag, but I'm not sure what your navigation
is supposed to look like. The only pages I could see all had Navigation
links at the top, consisting of hover buttons. If youcould give me a clue as
to what is missing, that would be very helpful.

Kevin,
Sure. What happens is I load the web pages using Front Page's Publish Web
tool. Everything is ok except the form. I email my hosting service. They do
something on their end (reloading server extensions I think) and all of my
theme tags and navigation links that normally appear are gone. Something is
getting over written or a directory is being changed. Not sure. I'll reload
my site and let you have another look.
Thanks for your help,
Chris

You are attempting to send the form to other than the FP SE using CFM
<FORM action="http://www.ezlauncher.com/FormMail.cfm" method="post">

Contact your host to see if they even support CFM
