Re: running CGI from a subdomain

Hi everyone,

Thanks so much for all your suggestions. It was actually a silly thing
- I didn't set permissions on the file to be executable! So now the
script works, in that I get to the "success page" of the form. It
doesn't however send an email to me. Here is my HTML form:

<form name="form1" method="post"
action="http://www.jiala.ca/cgi-bin/bnbform.cgi";>
<p><font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"
size="2"><b>
<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="required"
VALUE="Age,Sex,Province,Country">
<input type="hidden" name="submit_to"
value="amanda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx">
<input type="hidden" name="form_id"
value="Restless Leg Relief Protocol Download">
<input type="hidden" name="data_order"
value="Age, Sex, Province, Country">
<input type="hidden" name="ok_url"
value="http://www.jiala.ca/restlesslegrelief/rlrp2005/protocol-thanks.htm";>
<input type="hidden" name="not_ok_url"
value="http://www.jiala.ca/restlesslegrelief/rlrp2005/protocol-nothanks.htm";>
<font face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica,
sans-serif" size="3">
<input type="hidden" name="submit_by"
value="amanda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx">
Restless Leg Relief Protocol
Download</font></b></font></p>

I tried leaving the script to the default, with 'localhost' as SMTP
server. Then I tried using the SENDMAIL option instead, and used the
sendmail directory path as specified by my sysadmin. Neither works.
The thing is, I have a fairly cheapie account with this hosting
company, and they don't reply to my pleas for help! So I'm on my own
here...

One last thing. If I don't fill in all the fields, I still go to the
'ok_url' page and not the "not_ok_url" page that I want!
