Make sure that you have copied all the codes in the README file for the subs that you need to add to the site_html_templates.pl file.

I have fixed about five bugs in the Mod in the past two weeks...It should work!

I'm getting the same thing and I've checked the readme file against my site_html_templates.pl and against my html to make sure all the field names are consistent.

Have you made any changes to the template files? USE THE DEFAULT FILES!!! Do not hack the Mod!

You need to have all the hidden fields that are in the O R I G I N A L sendlink_form.html template file.

I really think both of you have hacked the template files and have inadvertantly deleted out necessary hidden fields for the form codes.

How do I know this? Because I have already fixed this bug three weeks ago. And it does work for many other LINKS users.

Best of luck finding a solution.

Well I just uploaded the default html templates and am still getting the same errors which pretty much means the templates aren't the problem, the code is. I'm still looking to find a solution. I'll let you know if I find anything. By the way, I'm getting the emails with no problems.

ID => $fields{'ID'},
Title => $fields{'Title'},
URL => $fields{'URL'},
Description => $fields{'Description'}

Uh...the copy of my Mod is in the Mod instruction page! I use that Mod and released the Mod.

Download it again and re-install the codes again!

Inserting the code did the trick - Thank you once again!

So I can try to learn something out of this experience, can you let me know why this mod would work for everyone else but us. As far as I know, I didn't change any of the tag definitions elsewhere in the script. I also know that sometimes things just don't work for no reason so that could be the case also.

Anyway, thanks again for your help.

Most likely.
