Looking for some training in very simple CGI forms, such as email capture boxes and contact forms. Actually, I would like to know how to make any form send to an email address neatly. Let me know if you are interested. I'd rather not pay since I know this isn't that complicated, but if I need to, I will. Thanks in advance.
any need to see how flash and cold fusion mx do it?
Here's where i learned how to do this.Quote:

A tutorial from our very own Flashkit.

Thanks for the info. I have saved the link for later reference dlowe. I was actually meaning to learn simple forms outside of Flash. Just basic website cgi. Anyone have any good information?
Oh, sorry.Quote:

I've been using some simple .php scripts, mostly to learn how it interacts with Flash. From what little i know, .php is much better than .cgi, but your mileage may vary.
http://www.php.net is where i started.

Yeah, my Flash forms are PHP for now. Thing is, i've put off learning basic cgi programming for too long now. I have clients asking me to make them forms and I can't do it. I need to know where to start. Anyone know anything about http://www.scriptarchive.com/ ?
check this out gdstudios... it might solve your problem but not necessarily with cgi.

It's a very simple and straight forward tutorial on handling forms and sending the collected data to an email address. if this isn't it the site may have what you need otherwise check out http://www.devshed.com/ or perhaps the perl website.
<edit : deleted duplicate posts. oops.>
So I take it you really want me to check this link out serpent? :) Thanks, I will look at right away.
Jeez Mat,
I never thought i advocate this for anyone, but have you considered switching to decaf?

Dear Matt,
We're sorry, but spamming like this is a bannable offense, and we're forced to block your IP, your username, took your dog hostage, cancelled your credit cards, issued a warrant to seize your computer, gave your grade-school librarian your address to collect on those overdue National Geographic magazines, and have slandered your reputation at the Aremican Dyslexic Society.
I hope your happy! :D

Left three messages about thesitewizard.com on my doorstep too. Weird.
Hi gdstudios,
ask specific questions in the scripting and backend forum, and you will probably get some replies. If you search a bit, you will probably find both complete scripts and reasons why you should use your own rather than premade ones from an archive
