FormMail is a generic HTML form to e-mail gateway that parses the results of any form and sends them to the specified users. This script has many formatting and operational options, most of which can be specified within each form, meaning you don't need programming knowledge or multiple scripts for multiple forms. This also makes FormMail the perfect system-wide solution for allowing users form-based user feedback capabilities without the risks of allowing freedom of CGI access. There are several downloading options available below and more information on this script can be found in the Readme file. FormMail is quite possibily the most used CGI program on the internet, having been downloaded over 2,000,000 times since 1997.

As my document How to write HTML forms briefly explains, you need a server side-script in order to use HTML forms reliably. Typically there are simple server-side scripts available for simple, common ways of processing form submissions, such as sending the data in text format by E-mail to a specified address.

But for more advanced processing, such as collecting data into a file or database, or retrieving information and sending it back, or doing some calculations with the submitted data, you will probably need to write a server-side script of your own.
