I need a script that can process my forms and send them to my email. I can't use anythign that has a 'mailto:' or that directly sends the form to my email becuase that stuff doesnt work with most aol browsers, and most of hte peopel who will access my site are on aol.

i have unlimited cgi-bins, can run perl, php, etc. i'd like it to be kinda simple. i've looked at other peoples source codes and found that the form is sometimes sent into their cgi-bin, but as i have never really used a cgi-bin or very much php, i dont really know what to do...

oh, btw, my host has somethign that says "path to sendmail: usrs/cgi-bin/sendmail"

or something....

thanks

Look there for some tutorials on using forms and sending e-mails with PHP. I've found that site very useful.
