How about using the PUR module for it?

public-user-registration/
Maybe overkill, depending on what you need, but it's an example at
least of how to capture public info

Hi Group,
Simple question... Once again, sorry to be referring to CQ, but it
is the only point-of-reference I have to work with...
Let's say I have a simple 'give us your e-mail address page for
future updates'. So, it has a form with one text field (for e-mail
address) and a 'go' button for submitting the form... What is the
preferred Magnolia way of handling this? Would I:
- Call a servlet and write some jdbc logic to stick the value in a
MySQL (or other) database? (if so, how do I just write a page
redirect template for returning back from the servlet?)
or
- Create a template (not accessible to the general public) with
which I add custom atoms/properties to? Then, when someone signs
up, I create a new template and populate the atom/property?
or
- Create a template and a custom paragraph/component - then when
someone signs up, I add a new paragraph/component to the template
for each new person?
Thanks,
--
