CGI Script

[JohnnyD]

Hi
Just wondering if anyone out there knows of a cgi/PERL/asp script that I can
use for handling the results from various forms that I want to have on my
front page site.
Unfortunately unable to use Matt Wright's excellent FormMail cgi script, as
I wish to send the results to email addresses in different domains as well
as cc the results to myself. Am really looking to set up a LOT of forms, so
would like it so I could just customise all my forms specifying one of the
recipient addresses and then use one handling script rather than customise
all my forms and a different form handling script for each of them (there
could be hundreds).
My site is also hosted on a Windows platform...
Any help gratefully appreciated

JohnnyD

You would have to custom write the form handler based on your needs and based on what email
component is installed and running on the server. ASP or ASP.net would be your best chose for
server-side scripting on a Windows OS.

Using formmail.asp with multiple domains permitted could be the answer
(although I do not know if there is any limit to the domains I can allow
access to to the script)

However now stuck on trying to add more than one recipient email address on
the form...are there any special tips?

Thanks

Just add the additional fields for the input of email addresses. Then you will have to modify the
form handler to use them.

Does Perl actually work on Windows ?

There is a FormMail.asp equiv of Matt Wrights formmail.pl around somewhere,
I've seen around - try www.hotscripts.com for many more scripts for sending
emails from forms.

 

[Thomas A. Rowe]

Yes, Perl is available to be installed under Windows.

FYI: Hacker/Spammer every day search the internet for sites running many of the free open source
mail and stat script, such as Matt Wrights' formmail.pl, which Matt has removed from being available
on his site a few years ago.
