Re: form to email script

Do they have PHP installed?  Take a look at how easy it can be:

http://php.net/manual/en/function.mail.php

Since PHP automatically turns form submission fields into
variables named after the field names, you do very little coding,
and you can have the processing code in the same page as the form
itself...

Subject: form to email script


I have taken over the administration of a website.  The site is on
an NT
server.  All I've used previously has been UNIX.  The customer
wants a form
on the site.  There was not one on it previously.  I can code it
with no
problems.  What I need is a means to send the results.  Again,
I've only
used Matt's formmail in the past.  I have found an NT version of
Matt's,
but it needs to know where the sendmail.exe file is.  I've been
told I can
add that to the cgi-bin myself.  Is that something I want to do,
and where
would I find it?   I have asked the tech support people about
forms and
they said it was no problem -- just do such and so with FrontPage.
I
explained that I don't use FrontPage.  They acted like I was an
alien.  Anybody have any good sources for NT form to email
scripts?
