The following
article shows how to create a subscribe webform using formmail.pl
written by Matt Wright. This PERL-script is installed on
many webservers.
Here is the complete HTML soucecode for a HTML subscribe
form using fommail.pl installed on your webserver:
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
</head>
<body>
<form
action="http://www.mydomain.tld/cgi-bin/formmail.pl" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="recipient"
value="mylist@mycompany.tld">
<input type="hidden" name="redirect"
value="http://www.mydomain.tld/newsletter/thankyou.htm">
<input type="hidden" name="subject" value="Subscribe">
<br>Email: <input type="text" name="email">
<br>Name: <input type="text" name="name">
<br><input type="submit" name="send" value="Submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
The blue lines are specific code for FormMail. If you use a different script, you need to adjust these lines.
The green lines are universal code, used to add 2 fields (name and email) to our form.
Now save the file to your webserver and click on
"Submit".
