This code needs FP extensions to process.  You need to delete the above
code, from the "--webbot-self part on.  Instead, put your CGI script (or
corresponding info from WebJump) in the ACTION portion of the form tag.

Or switch the site over to a free host that supports FP.  Freedom2Surf,
which was mentioned in a tip the other day, offers both FP and PHP support.

This is a bit of those "proprietary webbots" mentioned in previous posts.
