    Question FormMail, URL, CGI... and a spinning head.

    Hello everybody,

    I am new to the site (as though my post count hadn't tipped you off...) and to the work of setting up a homepage.

    My aim is to create a site for an English tutorial with integrated vocabulary tests. HotPotatoes (the program the tests are created with) offers the function to have the results of the students mailed to you, but it insists on FormMail.pl. And that's where the troubles start.

    1.)HotPotatoes wants to know the URL, and I can't seem to find the right one. I placed FormMail.pl in my cgi-bin-folder. What would be the right URL?
    I am registered as kuhrm.co.cc , if that provides any clues.

    2.) I entered my address and my mail-provider's domain in the $referrers section and left the @recipients unchanged in the .pl-file. Is there anything I have overlooked?

    Hoping for your support and patience.

    Hey, sorry about the double post. Please close the thread, the problem has been solved.

    I replaced the formmail.pl, changed the mailprog-line and the permissions - one of these things must have done the trick
