Thanks! That seems simple enough, even for me. My home computer is in the shop right now but I'll give that a shot as soon as I get it back.

one@email.com
two@email.com

<?php
if ($email_form == "a") {
$sent_to = "one@email.com"; 
} else if {$email_form == "b") {
$sent_to = <a href="mailto:two@email.com" class="bb-email">two@email.com</a>";
} else { $sent_to = "default@email.com"; }
?>

this is just a really quick example, a switch option would probably be better. the form would have a value next to the email address, in this example I used "a" and "b" if none were chosen it would use default@email.com or you could set up an validation section to make sure it went somewhere.
the variable $sent_to is what you pass on.
why are you using a cgi scrip as well? PHP has the mail() function you can use

I now figured out how to go about this within my script but I've got one simple problem. I will need to set the variable in php by saying "if 'A' is chosen in the dropdown menu, then use appropriate email address" How do I set a php variable in a dropdown menu (before it posts to the cgi script)?

SELECT boxes and you could ostensibly set them as a variable and have it read into the script. The only problem with that is it will allow for harvesting unless you turn it around and set the SELECT values to something arbitrary (a1, a2, a3) and have those values set in the script.

What about a drop-down combo list thingy? <-- lol sorry don't know what it's called,

edit: by the way i'm referring to those boxes at the bottom of the page that lets you choose which forum you wnat to go to
