If/when Apache serves the page to your browser, it proves that Apache is WORKING and if then other things are properly configured, it just might serve up a requested form.

If/when Apache can't/won't serve a simple HTML page, you stand _ZERO_ chance of getting ANY form to display.

It is a necessary condition that Apache MUST be operational before Forms can be made to work; necessary but not sufficient. Received on Sat Mar 22 2003 - 23:05:40 CET
