Forms

This is where we'll learn about fill-out forms. These are really handy but they require a program running on the server to handle them. This means that if you don't have access to a program to do what you want, you're out of luck. The first two items contain essentially the same information. If you want you can read only one of them but it's best to read both.

Web Communications Forms Tutorial <http://www.webcom.com/html/tutor/forms/start.shtml>

This is a nice forms tutorial. However, since we are not using their system we cannot use their form. You will learn what forms are all about though.

Mosaic for X version 2.0 Fill-Out Form Support <http://www.ncsa.uiuc.edu/SDG/Software/Mosaic/Docs/fill-out-forms/overview.html>

This is a clear explanation of fill out forms. It is specific to Mosaic for X but the ideas work for all browsers that I'm aware of. Try to concentrate on the differences between the elements.

FormMail Readme <http://www.worldwidemart.com/scripts/readme/formmail.shtml>

This is the readme file for the FormMail CGI program we are going to use for the project. You'll need to read this to use it. Contrary to what it say on the FormMail Page, DO NOT PRINT THIS FILE OUT IN THE LAB.
