post is not working with SEF enabled

Hi there
I was hoping you can help me figure out why the form is not posting to the right url.
Here is the action of the form:
action="http://www.abma.com/cms/membership-application.html?chronoform=registration_form&event=submit"
When I submit, I get a 404.
I am guessing that the ?chronoform.... is being taken as part of the http url, because of the .html page.
I am using post method.. maybe the chronoform and event variables should be sent on the post to the html page? How?

I am using v4 Rc2, joomla 1.7 on windows with IIRF.
Everything else works normally on the site.

Hi mposse,

Please go to the form General tab (click the 'name' link in the Forms Manager to get there) and try setting 'Relative URL' to 'No'.

Hi GreyHead
Thank you for your prompt attention, as usual!
I did and it now post the form.
The user is saved on com_users, but the remaining data is not saved on the custom table.
The form is also ignoring the "show thanks message" section and instead I get an empty page.

BTW, what happened with the integration with CB? Is it available in v4? (can't find it!)

Thanks again!

Hi Mposse,

An empty page is usually a sign of a PHP Error, please temporarily set Error Reporting to Maximum in the Site Global Configuration and see if you get a more meaningful message.

The CB registration action hasn't been ported to CFv4 :-( Neither Max or I are CB users and it will probaly need someone to write a CFv4 version or Max to get a client who needs it to get the work done (CB is not always friendly to external interfaces).
