Adding a form to
your site requires two processes. One is creation of the
form page itself. The second is use of a script to
process the data received from the form page.
The form page can be created in HTML using form tags to
designate different field types and properties. To learn
more about Form tags and their use, click
here to visit PageTutor.com and their Form tutorial.
You will also need to create a thank you page, commonly a page
thanking the user for their submission and providing them
links back to the main area of your site.
After you have created your form you will need to copy and
paste the following lines into the top of the form to interact
with the FormMail script we will provide. This should be
the open form tag of your form. It should precede your
form fields. Be sure to enter your information for email
address, subject, and thank you page.
<FORM ACTION="../cgi-bin/FormMail.cgi or .pl
depending on which is indicated in your FormMail setup letter"
method="POST">
<input type=hidden name="recipient" value="your
email address goes here">
<input type=hidden name="subject" value="Enter
what you would like to see in the subject line of the email
when you receive the form results">
<input type=hidden name="redirect"
value="the full path to your thankyou page. Ex. http://www.yourdomain.com/thankyou.html">
