O.K. after much work I found what was causing this problem. I am not a PHP 
programmer, have begun to study it, but don't know the commands. I once could 
program basic C, which should make learning PHP easier. I miss the inline 
debugger for C. 

Any way the problem was the result of how my field names were created in 
GoLive. I don't know if this is a GoLive only problem. 

Problem: 
GoLive creates its Field names as such: 
name='First' 
(I believe this is a GoLive isolated problem, I am not sure if other HTML 
software creates fields the same.) 

If you copy and paste this field name to create your error form Phorm chokes, 
(Interestingly, this only arises when using required fields.) creating the 
error seen a few posts back. 

Solution: 
name="First" change the ' to " in the errorform.html, and the problem is 
solved. 

What a headache, took hours to realize this was what was causing the errors!
