A Perl Script The Form that Calls It
I've written a somewhat lengthy Perl script that takes user input, returns an acknowledgement page, send the input to an html bulletin board, and lets the user link to the bulletin board. This script is used at my site. However, I adapted (slightly) so that when you test it, it won't post to my site. Instead, it posts to a dumby page. Please feel free to take this script and use it for your own sites.
In borrowing my script, you may want to trim it to the bare essentials that you need and build outward. I have a lot of error-protection built in that you may not need or want. Also, please keep me informed of your adaptations. I'd like the ability to use what you create!
At any rate, here is the script. You'll have to hit the "Back" button to get back to this page.
Please fill out this form and "submit it" to see the script work.
