http verb???

[lana254]

405 - HTTP verb used to access this page is not allowed.
The page you are looking for cannot be displayed because an invalid method (HTTP verb) was used to attempt access.

What does this mean??? Tell me how to fix it please!

Most likely you are trying to send POST data to a URL which the web server thinks (correctly or incorrectly) is a static page. But there are other possibilities, and without more info there's no way anyone can give you a definitive answer. It could be a server configuration error, a user error, or a software bug somewhere in the mix, etc.

Here is what I have for my form I dont know why it keeps telling me : "HTTP verb used to access this page is not allowed."

// Receiving variables
@$FirstName = addslashes($_POST['FirstName']);
@$LastName = addslashes($_POST['LastName']);
@$Address = addslashes($_POST['Address']);
@$City = addslashes($_POST['City']);
@$State = addslashes($_POST['State']);
@$ZipCode = addslashes($_POST['ZipCode']);
@$PrimaryPhone = addslashes($_POST['PrimaryPhone']);
@$SecondaryPhone = addslashes($_POST['SecondaryPhone']);
@$TimeToCall = addslashes($_POST['TimeToCall']);
@$Email = addslashes($_POST['Email']);
@$HomeOwner = addslashes($_POST['HomeOwner']);
@$LoanType = addslashes($_POST['LoanType']);
@$Property Type = addslashes($_POST['Property Type']);
@$PropertyValue = addslashes($_POST['PropertyValue']);
@$MortgageRate = addslashes($_POST['MortgageRate']);
@$MortageType = addslashes($_POST['MortageType']);
@$CreditRate = addslashes($_POST['CreditRate']);

// Validation
//Sending Email to form owner
# Email to Owner 
$pfw_header = "From: $Email";
$pfw_subject = "Smarter Home Solutions Quote";
$pfw_email_to = "[e-mail]";
$pfw_message = "FirstName: $FirstName\n"
. "LastName: $LastName\n"
. "Address: $Address\n"
. "City: $City\n"
. "State: $State\n"
. "ZipCode: $ZipCode\n"
. "PrimaryPhone: $PrimaryPhone\n"
. "SecondaryPhone: $SecondaryPhone\n"

. "Property Type: $Property Type\n"
. "PropertyValue: $PropertyValue\n"
. "MortgageRate: $MortgageRate\n"
. "MortageType: $MortageType\n"
. "CreditRate: $CreditRate\n";
@mail($pfw_email_to, $pfw_subject ,$pfw_message ,$pfw_header ) ;
 echo("<p align='center'><font face='Arial' size='3' color='#FF0000'>Thank you we will be in touch with you soon. <br>Please Go Back.</font></p>");
?>

The problem is probably not in that code. It is a web server issue being triggered before your form-handler script every gets executed. What does the <form> tag look like that calls this script, and what is this script's filename?

Here is the code. I hope this helps. But the site is being hosted on Go Daddy. I have other sites on Go Daddy that I use php on and they work fine. You are more than welcome to contact me on yahoo or aol if you wish

Only thing I can think of is, since you're using CGI, the index.php file called by the form may have to have execute permission. If that's not it, I'm pretty well stumped.
