    I'm fifteen years old and I've just launched my second website - www.photobacklink.com

    the thing is I'm really having trouble with forms, I made a form with should email some information to my email addres, with an attachment photo, but when you use the form you get a "No variables sent to form" error.

    At the moment if you go to the site http://www.photobacklink.com/one.aspx? you'll see that I'm getting people to email the information to me themselves, which is so lame - so if anybody could help me set up a form which could do the same thing that'd be really awesome!

    I'm using Godaddy for hosting - windows servers, does anyone know

    thanks a lot,
    Kiddo

    I work primarily with FrontPage myself.

    Looks like you are using the GoDaddy form handler, but you don't have anything set up for confirmation or email.

    You would need something like this inside your form code for those for email and confirmation page.

    <input type="hidden" name="mailto" value="emailaddress">

    <input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="confirmationpageurl">

    Can't remember if the GDad form handler requires the absolute URL for confirmation. I would try relative first.

    Also don't know if they allow file upload. If they do, I believe you may need a destination folder for this.
