In all honesty, it took me about 5 minutes.

The last ten was spent building a nested table structure for the form to reside in.

What can I say, I'm slow with nested tables.

Ha, ha ... LOL!  Smile

Oh, oh ... you're gonna put Ed to shame with your speed of installation.  Now, if he doesn't get that form working in 5 minutes or less, you're gonna have to take his place as the next mail form Guru!  We're gonna need to demote poor Ed.

(*whispering: so let's just let Ed think that you took longer, okay?  Smile )

P.S. Hey, that was pretty darn fast with the nested table building, too!

LOL, Ed!!!  Show-off!!!  But, I really think ...

1) Either Ed's wooden (and duct taped) nose has just grown three feet long and he was transported to the Island of the Lost Boys!

or

2) His clock/watch stopped in the middle of the process

Smile

That's what I think really happened.  Okay, FallenDruid, get ready to be inducted into the head mail form Guru position!

I timed it just for you guys! Though I ended up having to use a different script because they wanted to be able to send attachments as well.

LOL!!  That's true.  Smile

You were pretty darn fast with the installation, though.  I was impressed!  Anyway, good luck with your site!

Okay, Ed, you're the main man, then ... you get to keep the head mail form Guru position.  Thumbs Up

I probably will end up learning...*sigh*

Oh, well.

Once I do, I can earn the big bucks as a web designer! Smile

Still, I'd like to know why my first sript in this page didn't work.

The fact that it said internal server misconfiguration makes me think that there's something wrong with the perl install  on my server slot...or, they disabled pl because I was originally using an exploitable script.

Strange. It could be a combination of uploading incorrectly (binary instead of ASCII) or permissions.. or a non commented out character.. etc etc.. tons of possibilities!
