[PHP] Re: HTTP Error 405 using POST method

2002-02-05 Thread Rainer

In your example I see that you forgot /head after your /title ... maybe
that's the problem!

 Hi. I'm learning PHP3 on an IIS 4.0 box and I started by trying out this
 simple HTML form. The form lets the user input his/her name, email
address,
 and select whether he/she likes oranges or apples and sends the data to a
 .php file that displays what the user input on the HTML form. The form
 method is POST. When I submit the data I type, I receive an HTTP Error 405
 message with the following text:
 start of error message
 HTTP Error 405
 405 Method Not Allowed

 The method specified in the Request Line is not allowed for the resource
 identified by the request. Please ensure that you have the proper MIME
type
 set up for the resource you are requesting.

 Please contact the server's administrator if this problem persists.
 end of error message

 Here is the HTML page with the form I am using:

 HTML
 HEAD
 TITLERequest for more information/TITLE
 BODY
 CENTERWould you like more information about our company?
 P
 FORM ACTION=email.php3 METHOD=POST
 Your name:BR
 INPUT TYPE=text NAME=name SIZE=20 MAXLENGTH=30
 P
 Your email address:BR
 INPUT TYPE=text NAME=email SIZE=20 MAXLENGTH=30
 P
 I prefer:
 SELECT NAME=preference
 OPTION value = ApplesApples
 OPTION value = OrangesOranges
 /SELECT
 P
 INPUT TYPE=submit VALUE=Send it!
 /FORM
 /CENTER
 /BODY
 /HTML

 What am I doing wrong?

Looks like IIS is not configured to accept POST requests; confirm by 
changing to GET and try again. If this is the case you'll need to make 
some changes to IIS configuration; sorry, can't tell you how or where as 
I have never used that software.
