Your example isn't working properly. First, there is a javascript error on submit, and then you get an error message indicating the thank you page is not on the server.

It's a very useful script. I like to use file userform.cgi in my index.htm for my personal web page. I have change the <FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="/cgi-bin/userform.cgi" onSubmit="return thankYou(this)">
to be
<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="http://www.irt.org/cgi-bin/userform.cgi" onSubmit="return thankYou(this)">
But it keeps saying that userform.cgi is not found.

Could you please tell me how I should change the orginal script?

I would appreciate your help if you could help me out.

I want to use a similar type of form to place text from formfields into a file. Which means I wanted to check out what the userform.cgi looks like but you haven't included that anywhere!

Were parts of this tutorial deleted?

I tried the demo, and ended up at a "url not found" error.

Is it possible to display the user's input before the info is sent?

Thanks

Jim

I was trying to actually upload this to my server and run it, only I could never figure out what or where to get the userform.cgi file from to put in my cgi bin.

With that out of the way. I LOVE THIS SITE

Generally the articles on this website are great and very helpful.

Wanted to let you know that when I run this script on your site using MSIE Version 4.0 I get an error:

line 53
char 5

"checked" is not an object.

I am very interested in using this approach. Basically I have built a form and want to pass the contents of the form to a new page and display it in as text. We receive these forms by fax and OCR them for a blind employee. I find the boxes of the form create problems with OCR and am trying to avoid them. We cannot receive the data electronically at this time (policy reasons not technical)

Does this work on MSIE browsers? Thanks for the great article.

I found a way of getting around the object null problem . If u dont need checkboxes just delete anything to do with them and the program works fine in both IE 5X or NS 4X. Have Fun all!

This script is exactly what I needed. But how can I get access to the userform.cgi script. Does it work in Explorer?
