Answer 3

use FormMail

you should set these variables in formmail.pl

@referers = ('yourdomain.com','ip_number');

look at this and

@recipients = ('^support\@it\.com');

look at this and

$mailprog = '/usr/lib/sendmail -i -t';

which is the path of sendmail in your system. if you're not sure where is your sendmail path, use the following command at your unix prompt:

which sendmail

This will tell you where sendmail is on your system. If it says it could not find it, just ask your system administrator.

after configured formmail.pl, put it in cgi-bin folder.

here is an example of a form using formmail.pl ( recipient field is required )

<form name="myform" action="http://yourdomain.com/cgi-bin/test.pl" method="GET">
    <input type=hidden name="recipient" value="[email protected]">
    <input type=textarea name="mytext"/>
    <input type="submit" />
</form>

Answer 4

Like Jørn Schou-Rode said, you really need to use a server-side programming language to catch and process the form data. The options are numerous - PHP, ASP, .NET, ColdFusion, Java, Ruby... the list goes on. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Server-side%5Fscripting as a starting point.

I remember starting out in web development and wanting to do the same thing but you really are now getting into more advanced areas of development (beyond simple client-side HTML/CSS/JavaScript coding).
