Steve,

Did you also consider trying this with Javascript? You could have the page call itself and then use document.write (variable). Variable could be almost anything from a form element, the page title, a table, etc.

I made something like you described in ASP, which would let users type in some page information and it generated the page for them. It was pretty simple so I imagine doing it with CGI can't be to hard either (I'm not a CGI expert so I can't help you there, sorry).

Sorry I couldn't help more. Actually if you took a form handler CGI and just modified it a bit that would probably work for you, there are ALOT of form handler CGI's out there. Why not experiment

Later,
PJ

The problem with Javascript is it won't store the file on the server.

To tell you the truth, I am a newbie when it comes to CGI. I can install a script, or even modify it a little, but other than that it's greek to me

With form handler's, I don't think I've ever seen one that creates a new page for everyone that submits.

What I did find was a script ( http://www.interlogy.com/scripts/netcard/ ). I tried the demo and it seems to work nicely for what I want. I'll spend a while customizing it, and hopefully it will work, or else you'll find me back here

Thanks for all your help.

Uhh, thanks but the color thing was just an example.

If you read the top of my message:
I'm looking for a free CGI script that will take varibles from a form, and create a new HTML page with those varibles.

Any help, anyone?
