Thanks a bunch for everyone’s input; I didn’t have to wait long at all to
receive an answer from all of you knowledgeable [] people. A few questions:
What smtp server software would you recommend I use to send
email? I have win98se, apache, activestate_perl.
How do I use CGI.pm to parse a form’s output? Do I just do:
#!c:/perl/bin/perl –w
use CGI.pm
# Then something like
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n";
print header;
foreach $key (sort keys(%formdata)) {
print "<P>The field named<B>$key</B>
contained <B>$formdata{$key}</B>";
##### Does anyone have a nicely customizable form validation script I can
use instead of “reinventing” one?
Also, it seems that there are a number of programmers on this list who feel
passionate about validating scripts server-side. Since I do my validation
using javascript, then send it to the server so that “formmail.pl” can chew
on it.

<form onSubmit = "return submitIt (this)" action =
"http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/form_parse.pl"; name = "cattlemancustomForm">
<input
type="hidden" name="recipient" value="[EMAIL PROTECTED]">
<input
type="hidden" name="subject" value="Cattleman form submittal">
<input
type="hidden" name="title" value="Info">

So, if I use a server-side validation script, how do keep my email addr
hidden from clients, (refer to above example?
Thanks
