Dreamweaver 2004 MX is not recognizing my form elements

Question

Has anyone run into a problem with an insert or update server
behavior not recognizing form elements? I created the page and now
when I try to make any changes I get an error.
"Column 'sccb_comments' is mapped to a form element that does
not exist. Please map the column to an existing form element or set
its value to 'None'."
The problem is that the insert dialog box recognizes the
form, but not any of the elements in it.
I know that I need to upgrade to CS4, tell my director to
cough up the funds.

Answer 1

There must be something else happening on your page. But I
have no idea
what that might be. This should work. Sorry.
