The web page for the FormMail program is at

http://www.worldwidemart.com/scripts/formmail.shtml

Basically all you need is the following


<form action="/cgi-bin/formmail.pl" method="POST">
Email address:
<input type="text" name="recipient" size="25">
<input type="hidden" name="Subject" value="Put the email subject here">
<input type="hidden" name="Message" value="Text of your message">
<input type="submit" value="Send Webpage">
<input type="reset" value="Reset">
</form>

Try and use the Form Mailer script we provide. Just call:

"/powweb-bin/FormMail.pl"
