Force InfoPath form to open in Browser

Question

I created an InfoPath form that uses VB code to push fields into a custom list I created on a SharePoint 2007 site. This part works.

I "published" the form into a form library.

I changed the settings on that form library to open items in the browser and allow editing of content types.

In InfoPath under Form Settings I chose the compatibility setting to allow this form to be opened in a browser, I linked to my Forms service online, and ran the design checker. No errors.

When I try to open it in the browser using the "Edit in Browser" setting I get this error message:

This form template is not currently browser-enabled. It must either be republished as a browser-enabled form, or opened using Microsoft Office InfoPath 2007.

No matter what I do, the form will not open in the browser. This is all I want. Did I miss something??

Have you signed the form with a certificate in the "Security and Trust" screen? — strongopinions
I've set the security and trust, the one thing I noticed is that it says "An Administrator must approve this form template before it can be filled out by the browser". I am an "Owner" on my SharePoint site but I am not a site-collection-admin, can I perform this task?? — 0x808080

You need to upload your form thru Central Administration because you use code in your form. See this MSDN acticle.
