    Question Showing Forms in HTML

    I have a DHTML application running on a WEB server. When the user clicks submit a database is updated with a record on a network drive. I am doing a SHOW to call up a separate form when they click SUBMIT, so the user can see a relevant piece of information from the database record. When I try this I get the following message :

    'Non modal forms cannot be displayed ni this host application from an activex dll, activex control or property page'.

    Can anyone tell me if :

    (i) I am doing something wrong (probably !)
    (ii) This cannot be done this way
    (iii) An alternative way to show a form with a message on it

    Any help much appreciated.

    You can show the form as modal:
    Code:
    form.show vbModal
    oOOo--oOOo
