I would think you can just make one. I am not sure what you would chmod it to. maybe 0777.

I am not an expert on setting up servers etc (yet ) so maybe someone else can help?

One other thing!

IF an ISP say they support cgi but do not have a cgi-bin directory then can I just make one my self and put it in my directory?
Or does it have to be done by the ISP?

Thanks again

Ok Robp,

thanks for the reply. I wennt to your site and grabbed the formahandler.txt file and your example html code.

I am assuming that I rename the formahandler.txt to formahandler.cgi and dump it in the cgi directory?

Then use the html code on one of my pages to call the script and use it.

Please forgive my ignorance on this one it's just that I don't have a clue about cgi.

Thanks

~Vy~

I made a script you may be interested in.
It has the ability to email you form input as well as store the input to a file. You must have cgi access and sendmail though.

I think it is pretty easy to set-up. Info about it can be found at http://dlo.net/~rob/cgi-bin/formhandler.shtml

Hope that helps.
