Modify works, but not Add, Validate

Modify works, but not Add, Validate
Hello,

I'm stuck here on Ver 2 of Links. If I'm on the user side in the pages area, and I modify a link I've added from the admin.cgi, it works and sends mail etc.

If I Add a new link from the user side, it does not email, validate shows empty and the .db file shows empty.

Email also works ok inside the admin.cgi, bit not outside, except Modify as mentioned above.

Seems to me if Modify works, the others should work, correct?

Thanks,

Dave

Sorry, I guess its the Yahoo template.
I posted in the wrong forum too, sorry.

Thanks,

Dave

PS.
Wish some of the folks would post a fix for the form tag problem. Most just said they fixed it.

I'm having the almost the same problem with the Yahoo template. The Modify and Validate seem to work but when I go to my www.gamesta.com site and try to add a site it simply reloads the page after I click on the "Add Resource" button. I never receive an e-mail and it never show up under links to validate. I am using Links 2.0 . How did you fix your problem?

Try this thread.

My problems were solved by placing the <form></form> tags outside of the tables. I am using the Yahoo templates.
I think in the add.cgi, there is a form tag inside a table.

Thanks for the reply Dave! I got it fixed by adding a single <form> tag just before <table border=0 cellpadding=0 width="80%">
<form action="<%db_cgi_url%>/add.cgi" method="POST">
</table>

Thanks for the help!!
