Actually what I'm making is a site users and use to modify "watch-lists." On the first page I prompt them with a drop-down-list of the watch-lists from a specified directory. The user either selects one and clicks an "open" button or clicks a "new" button to start a new one. The only thing in the file is a list of email addresses and a list of tags being "watched."

At first I had a submit button that opened the selected file. But Now that I'm trying to add a second button to create a new one I'm at a loss.

Melody isn't quite what I'm looking for, thanks though. I've already read the CGI101 it was very helpful. Formbuilder does look like it will do the trick. I look forward to rewriting my 200 lines of code. =)
