CGI help? Anyone....?
Well im basically helpless when it comes to CGI/Perl, and i tried to follow the tutorials but i just get lost. Is anyone here fluent in Perl? Im trying to have a comments page on my website, but I have a template for PHP and Angelfire doesnt use PHP, only CGI. Anyone know much about angelfire?
I have a comments MC with the corresponding variables...
Code:
on (press) {
if (first_name) {
msg.gotoAndPlay(2);
loadVariables("send.php", this, "POST");
first_name = "";
last_name = "";
address = "";
email = "";
phone = "";
comments = "";
} else {
a.gotoAndPlay(2);
}
}
I know obviously the "send.php" wont work because i dont have PHP, but can someone help me write a cgi to just email these variables to me?
and the "a.gotoandplay(2)" gives them a message telling them they need to enter their name, so dont worry about that.
So can someone help?
Anyone familliar with Angelfires CGI?
Also...here is an example of a CGI script that Angelfire suggests...thats works fine....
Code:
<FORM ACTION="/cgi-bin/script_library/form_handler_mail" METHOD=POST>
What is your name?
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="visitor_name"><BR>
What is your email address?
<INPUT TYPE="text" NAME="email"><BR>
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="end_display" VALUE="http://www.pokepokertables.com">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="required" VALUE="email">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="order" VALUE="visitor_name, email">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="savefile" VALUE="visitors.txt">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="email_to" VALUE="[email protected]">
<INPUT TYPE="submit" VALUE="Submit">
</FORM>
