Preserved Topic: CGI, didn't know which forum to post in....

I need to write a CGI or other server-language script with several text fields and a submit button that will format the text fields into an email and send the email to me. This should be relatively simple to accomplish, but I no nothing about writing cgi scripts. Anyone help?

this should help.. if i correctly understand what you're talking about, hehe.

Actually, if you want it sent to you by email, you don't even really need CGI unless you want it to be secure somehow. (Is there a way to send secure email? I dunno.)

put this inside your <form> tag:
action="mailto:myaddress@place.com"

Then when someone clicks on submit, it'll be sent to your email. Give it a test before making it live, just to make sure it all works OK.

Thanks guys. I got it. <img border=0 align=absmiddle src="http://www.ozones.com/forum/smile.gif">
