can any one help me out, a friend of mine has asked me to do a web form thingy for her to help with her final bit of course work and university, i said yes only to find that my web host had deleted my previously free cgi bin, now they have put something back after i complained but they wont help me to sort it out as they say cgi stuff is now part of a more expensive package and i havent got a clue on this stuff (I HATE INTERNETTERS! - he company not people who use the internet as that would be like, self hatred which is bad, which isnt like self abuse, which can be goood) anyway can anyone help me out by either allowing me to target their cgi script to process the form into an email that will be sent to my friend... the form i have done -which doesn't work... yet...can be seen here, so you can see it is liegit
