Creating a feedback form in html

[Karl]

Hi, I need to create a feedback form in a webpage I am making so
that
users can fill in text and simply hit send, and the text will be
mailed. I know there are probably lots of ways to do this, I have
been using java for 10 years so I know it could be done that way, but
I want to do it the main way that it is done on the internet today.
I
understand this is probly done with a perl script and cgi. If you
guys could give me your feedback on the most common way this is done
I
would appreciate it thanks

Karl

Yes I am a perl user, but honestly i would just try PHP in your
scenario... http://www.w3schools.com/php/php_forms.asp

If you really want to use perl, which is fair enough, than try reading
here: http://perldoc.perl.org/CGI.html

I think CGI::FormBuilder is a very good way to do this and gets close to
what PHP can do (surpassing it in some ways). Whether you prefer PHP or
Perl is up to you.
