No, I am pretty sure you can not do it this way, send info straight from
HTML to sendmail. For one thing, the ACTION in in your domain name implies
that there is something existing on your server's path such as
http://www.quicksurfer.com/usr/sbin/sendmail , which there isn't. You will
need a script to do this.
> Isn't sendmail "server-wide".
Yes, but not from the HTML perspective. You will need a cgi script to do
what you are trying to do. I recommend FormMail at
http://www.worldwidemart.com/scripts/formmail.shtml . This is a good script
and will help you get started understanding what you will need to know to
administer your server.
