I am new here, and i wanna learn about forms. I use Dreamweaver 4, so I don't really know HTML very good because it does it for me. All i want to know is how to get info from users on my web site and post it right away, for ex. Make person type his name the select age....stuff like that than click submit button and post all that info on some other page. Now i know how to make jump menus text fields radio buttons and all that, what I neet to know is how to make all the info get on onother page. If you could help me that would be great, in case u need my e-mail is nationalwebsite@yahoo.com, Thnx...:)

If all you want to do is display the users information that is fairly easy but if you want to gather the info in a data base or have it sent to your inbox you need to use cgi or something like that. If you get a free webpage at Freeservers.com you can use their help to do what your talking about. If you need more help than that take a look at http://hoohoo.ncsa.uiuc.edu/cgi/.

I'm currently working on an HTML editor which allows users to create more advanced HTML than say Word but doesn't require that they memorize very much. All that the user has to do is click a button and the code is inserted for them. If you would like a free copy please contact me at EvilDrag0n@hotmail.com
