I follow all the steps in the tutorials to create a simple One Line Form.
But each time I get an error message
"This program cannot display the webpage
Most likely causes:
You are not connected to the Internet.
The website is encountering problems.
There might be a typing error in the address."
This confuses me since I am trying to write the visitor's tel number to a text file.
Or at least that's what FP is supposed to do with the number since I selected all the text options.
Can anyone help solve this problem since I can't publish my website without that very basic feature?

In short, that error indicates that either you are not connected to the internet or the files are not located where you're telling your browser to look.Are these files on your local computer, did you upload them to a server, or did you set up your own local server?

Your post isn't very clear.
- You try to create a form, but you get an error. But it's not an error when creating the form.
- The error is about displaying. You say you (I assume that's the form) are trying to write the visitors phone number to a text file. But before the program can do that, the form must be displayed for the visitor to be able to fill in that number.
- Is it a "One line form" or an "online form". Or does the form consist of just one line: the phone number line?
- I doubt if you can write something to a text file on the website in any way. The webserver shouldn't have write access.
So can you please post the relevant part of the html-code of the page you've made? That's the body of the html with at least a one field form inside. Then we can copy that file to our own hard disk and see what's wrong when displaying it.
