I am currently developing a webpage for the Indian Students Association. I
want to include a form on the page, but I cant seem to manage it. I use
Frontpage98. I know that a cgi script is needed to get the information
entered and to send it to me as an email. I would like to know how i can get
a cgi- script that does this. I understand how to implement the forms and
assign the cgi scrpt to handle the data. I am having problems in getting he
cgi scrpt. Can any script be used or does it have to be specific to the typw
of form? Do yuo know where i ccan get one from?
I know these are a lot of questions, but i am really keen on knwing this,
since i have searched as much as possible but cant find the info i need.
thanks a lot,
Kevin
