    I created the form i wanted but there's some minor mistakes so i thought of editing it in frontpage but after i edited it, i can't seem to upload it via ftp to the folder. it says 553: rename/move failure: permission denied.

      Try deleting the original one on your site, them move the new one in.

      In your first post you said you edited the page but could not load it back to the site.  Am I missing something?
      If you can get the form from your site, edit it, then when you try to put the new form back on your site you get this error you will have to edit the permissions of the file on your site so that you can over-write it.

      i can't edit the permission. i read in some past posts that it's got to do with the file owner but i don't know how to get round this ownership thing. i can access the cPanelX of my website but it doesn't seem to help either when i try to change the permission there.

      i have a solution for it after some thinking... i copied and paste the sample form folder and transfer all the files under my created-and-to-be-edited form folder there. now i can edit the form in there. maybe this is a useful tip for those out there still encountering the permission problem.
      i have got another small problem though. how to solve this--->
      Warning: fopen(admin/data.dat): failed to open stream: Permission denied in /home/nusps/public_html/emed/forms/use/signup/process.php on line 55

      Warning: fwrite(): supplied argument is not a valid stream resource in /home/nusps/public_html/emed/forms/use/signup/process.php on line 59

      the above msg appeared when i submit my form. the submitted form appeared in the destinated email but just not the admin database table.

        When you moved the form the data file permissions were probably modified.  Change the data.dat file permissions to rw-rw-r--.  If that does not work set the permissions to rw-rw-rw-.
