Perl 5 script under Solaris.<br />

Since I am using POST, the CGI scitp gets all its values as PARM1=&quot;LAST NAME&quot;&amp;PARM2=&quot;FIRST NAME&quot;. &nbsp;How do I automatically thread all this into the body of a mail and send it off. &nbsp;Normally mailto just pulls up a mail window witht he recipient filled in.<br />

By much better for the cgi to do the eMail, then you know that it really got there. &nbsp;It also solves the problem of multiple submission requests from one submit button.<br />

So you're saying do not use mailto but an underlying mail command available on my webserver?<br />

I have a form that sends the result to a CGI program to verify the accuracy of the results. &nbsp;I'd also like to mail that form that the cgi program gets.<br />

How do I get the submitted from to go two places, the cgi program and to a mail recipient?

Mailto on FORM

A scripting language is a programming language that supports scripts, programs written for a special run-time environment that automate the execution of tasks that could alternatively be executed one-by-one by a human operator. Scripting languages are often interpreted (rather than compiled). Primitives are usually the elementary tasks or API calls, and the language allows them to be combined into more complex programs. Environments that can be automated through scripting include software applications, web pages within a web browser, the shells of operating systems (OS), embedded systems, as well as numerous games. A scripting language can be viewed as a domain-specific language for a particular environment; in the case of scripting an application, this is also known as an extension language.
