Problems with formMail.asp

I am using an asp formMail script that I got from brainjar.com. I cannot get it to operate correctly. When I hit Submit on the form it brings me to the url of the script - then of course says it can't find the page; rather than processing the script.

In the script, I customized it with my parameters:

referers = Array("www.leadtopia.com", "leadtopia.com")
mailComp = "ASPMail"
smtpServer = "localhost" (**this is what my hosting company said to use**)
fromAddr = "sales@leadtopia.com"

and have it stored in a folder called scripts.

My form code (the important part) is as follows:

<form action="/scripts/formMail.asp" method="post">
<p>
<input name="_recipients" type="hidden" value="sales@leadtopia.com" />
<input name="_requiredFields" type="hidden"
value="Name,Customer ID,Email,Comments" />
(it goes on from here...)

My hosting company cannot help me with this issue. Been struggling for DAYs. Any help would be appreciated!

hi and welcome to webforumz..

you mean a 404? that would mean that the page isnt where you said it was, and its not a problem with the script.

Just for hell sake though, post the script up here so we can take a peek. dont forget the [code] tags

Thanks for the reply.

I am not getting a 404 error but rather a "Page Cannot be Displayed" error page. The url on this error page is the url of the script.

The script (as much as I could fit in...)
