Ron,
It's not your or your system, it's the page. :>
The form is poorly designed. You can fix it, using F-4, and it will be
usable for you. :)
When you go to that page, once it is loaded hit F-4 for the internal
editor.
Use F-7 to search for FORM, and you'll see a line that says "FORM
METHOD=POST" ... change that to read "FORM ACTION=POST"
Hit F-2 or click 'save & view' ... You'll find the form works just fine
for you now. Field will accept input, buttons work.
I *cannot* guarantee the input data from you will get sent correctly,
but the form cgi does recognize when bad/no data was entered.
Give it a try, and remember this trick for any forms you find on the web
that don't want to work for you.
l.d.
