Forms - and what to to with them...

message from send2paul on 19 Jul 2004
(I accidentally pressed the 'this answers my question' button on the original
posting of this query, when it hadn't! :) )..

Having been able to produce all kinds of forms in DWMX2004 what do I do with
them now? How do I 'use' with within a website? What additional code do I need?
How do I use this code in respect of the forms I 've created? In what folders
do I place the code so that I can FTP it all up when I FTP the site from
withinn DWMX2004?"

I'm being told about Form CGI code. What I do with the Form.CGI code once I've
got it? Do I insert it into the HTML file with the form? Is it an "attachment",
like a CSS style sheet? Which folder does it go into, (if it is a separate
file), with respect to the DWMX2004 root folders, for FTPing up to the host
server?

Any help would be gratefully appreciated. Thank you.

Try FormMail. This version is time tested and about as bulletproof (immune
to spam hijacking and email address harvesting) as is possible today. The
header info pretty much explains how it works.
