Hello all.
I wanted to ask u about the front Page text box..
how do i use it?
i mean when how to make it save information when u press the Submite...
 
You must insert a form, then insert the text area form field. Then under form properties you can
select to email the data or store the data in a text file.

The site must be hosted and published via http to a server that has the FP extensions installed, and
if using the email function, the host must have configured the extensions to process email.

You will not be able to test the form on your local PC, unless you are running Windows 2000 Pro or
Windows XP Pro with IIS and the FP extensions and view the form via http://localhost/formname.htm

Under Form properties, you enter the email address that you want to send to, then you publish the
site via FP's File Menu | Publish Site command via http://www.yourdomainname.com to a server the has
the FP extensions.

See Thomas Rowe response to your post

But your form won't work because you are probably editing a page instead of a page in a FP web
- Open a FP Web / Site (File Open Site or File New Site) before you create the page

The U-File="fpweb:///_private/form_results.csv" shows a disc based path (fpweb:///)
In a FP web, that path in a page in the root would be: U-File="_private/form_results.csv"
