Search form doesn't work when submitted

[Ray]

I guess I should call my provider to see what platform they support, I checked .asp.

If you selected ASP, then the script you'll be uploading (and expecting to open) is "search.asp". Not "search.php".

<form method="get" action="http://home.comcast.net/~spartacus_33/Knucklehead/search.php">

But your form here is still going to "search.php"?

Well, my provider says they support, .php, .asp and .cgi.

If your hosting company actually supports PHP, then when you put a file named "myfile.php" in a folder, and access the URL from your browser, it should never return a "file not found" error and redirect you to a different page as you are seeing.

Similarly with ASP and any "myfile.asp" file.

Your hosting company either:

(a) Does not actually support PHP or ASP as stated (or theres additional details you're omitting, like its only supported under a certain folder, or a file extension)

(b) You are NOT uploading the files to where you think they are. You might have uploaded the files to a different folder. This happens more often than you may think.
