When you look in the design checker, also click the link at the top to show the compatibility dialog. There is a setting there to enable the form to work on the Form Server. Ensure that is set correctly.

Thanks so much for your reply. Ok, I checked in design checker, no errors. Also, in Sharepoint Administration, when you upload a form template it has a button to verify before you upload. When I verify it, the only error that comes up is that it is "not browser compatible". I know, I know, it would seem that I don't have the correct checkboxes checked, but by gollie I've checked, over and over and over again, and they are. Please help, and thank you so much!

Hey zeebubble,

I haven't worked with this too much, but you might try using the Design Checker (Tools -> Design Checker) to make sure there are no problems with the design. I think conditional formatting will throw this off, but you'll want to run the Design Checker just in case. Don't forget to change the compatibility settings for the checker to be a browser based form!

Forms in Browser Problem

zeebubble — Tue, 02 Jan 2007 21:00:15 GMT

When I try to open a form in the browser through the Sharepoint Team Site, it continuously says that the form is not browser enabled. When I started the form, I clicked the checkbox that makes it browser compatible, and in the Form Options dialog, under compatibility, again the same box is check to be browser compatible. I publish it under "site content type". It gets to Sharepoint just fine, then I get that error, "this form is not browser compatible". This seems counter-intuitive to me. Are there other options to make this thing broser enabled? Thanks so much for any help!
