Dear Sir I started studying Perl a week ago. I have my cgi-bin enabled.I am mixed up a little bit here To my understanding: to get the mail forms a user would press submit or send on an html form the process involes three things: 1-The html page that have the form inputs (name, email address, etc..) and the "submit" button. 2- the cgi script which resides in my cgi-bin directory. 3- the output html that is sent to my email. My question is : which of these three file should include the path to my email. Is it in the input html with the following:

<form action="http://mydomain/cgi-bin/script.cgi">
[download]

and/or should this path also be included in the output html that is going to my email and where my email should be placed. My question might seem very naive but I am learning. I would appreciate your answer to be emailed to: Bassem@arabtex.com. Thank you a lot Bassem Khatib
