I'm new to this so please excuse my lack of knowledge. When i set up a form and preview it on the net i get the following error when i press the submit button:

Method Not Allowed
The requested method POST is not allowed for the URL /contact.html.

This works fine when i test it using IIS but my live site is on a linux server running apache (the web host is pipex).

Anybody know what i need to do to fix this?

Thanks

A form cannot post to an HTML file. On a linux server, the html file probably does not have execute permissions and therefore cannot handle the data being given to it.

What scripting language are you using in contact.html? You will need to change the extension of that file to represent this (eg. .php, .cgi etc...)
