PHP provides a great interface for just this kind of thing. Basically, =
set up your form like this:
<form name=3D"template" action=3D"process.php" method=3D"post">
Title of Page: <input type=3D"text" name=3D"pageTitle" /><br />
First Paragraph: <textarea cols=3D"50" rows=3D"80" name=3D"firstPara">Para =
Here</textarea><br />
</form>
Then, in process.php, all you have to do is this:
<?php
echo "<html>\n";
echo "<head><title>$pageTitle</title></head>\n";
echo "<body>\n";
echo "<h2>$pageTitle</h2>";
echo "<p>$firstPara</p>";
?>
That type of thing. If you need help setting it up, I'll be glad to :o)

Hi All,
I have set up an online form for a client to use to describe new items=20
to add to his website.
I'm looking for a some way (maybe a cgi script?) to automatically =
format=20
the results into HTML. The pages for each item are identical in=20
formatting and I'm bored with this cutting and pasting into a template.=20
I'm not a programmer, and am limited to simple script editing...
Resources, suggestions welcome.
--=20
Best Regards,
Tenley
