Hey guys,
Ive recently installed Xampp on my windows xp machine. I wanted to setup a formmail for my school project. Problem is, I cant get it to work. I don't know how to make CGI work on xampp.
Here is the steps Ive taken so far.
I went to h**p://www.scriptarchive.com/download.cgi?s=formmail
I downloaded their formmail script, its in perl. I put it in my CGI bin directory.
I edit my index.html file and in the beginning I added this:
<form action="http://69.158.165.172/xampp/cgi-bin/fm192.pl" method="POST">
<input type="hidden" name="recipient" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="redirect" value="http://69.158.165.172/xampp/Test/SchoolProject.htm">
<input type="hidden" name="missing_fields_redirect" value="http://69.158.165.172/xampp/Test/">
My ip is not the same anymore as it changes every now and then, but thats not the problem.
I run the index.html, i fill out the form and the error says:
Object not found!

Anyone have a clue on how to use the form mail function with xampp?
