    form-> email with perl, php, or cgi

    I would like to find a tutorial online about how to make your own script to turn an html form into an email sent to the address in one of the textboxes. I dont want an already made one; i want to make my own. After that, how would I go about compiling it or whatever you do to turn it into a fully working form-> email thing.

    Or...
    I could also use one that is already made but does NOT have ads or any thig that says something like "This email script was made by John Doe" or "copywrite 1999." So it looks like I did it by myself

    One last thing...
    Now that I think of it, it could be written in any language.

    Look for "formmail" it's a Perl script so you can easily take any copyright notices off, although it's a tad unethical

    If you start with a basic Perl script, you can just loop through all the keys in the hash created by that groovy query string parser, and output them to sendmail (this only works on Unix/Linux servers, but NT isn't really a server anyway )
