CGI script

[outcrowd]

Ok, back again... miss me?

I have a website and I would love to use an online form for people to complete. I have NO experience using CGI script. UGH... Does anyone know where I can find any information regarding such matters?

Thanks,

[Fister]

Here is a comprehensive beginning book on CGI/PERL on line http://docs.rinet.ru/CP7/ if you're ready for some serious study.

If you're just looking for free CGI scripts, just do a google search for "cgi script". Best wishes...PERL scripts are hard to debug for novices, and you have to get all the paths right for your particular webhost.

Do a search on Google for 'formmail.cgi' that should provide you with a few links to some free formmail script that will do what you want

Also run a search on www.hotscripts.com for the same term

If your host provides it, I'd use a PHP script. I LOVE PHP, it's so much easier to modify for your own needs than CGI scripts written in Perl.

In fact, with PHP you can really make your own mail script with only a few lines of coding and an HTML form.
