AwardMail.pl is designed
for use by award sites. It uses a form to receive
information from an applicant about their site (i.e., name,
e-mail, site URL, description).
When
the form is submitted, the information is sent to your e-mail
address. At the same time, the applicant receives an
automatic response confirming the submitted information.
The
script automatically filters to be sure all fields are filled
and that the e-mail address is present and properly
formed. If fields are left blank or the e-mail address
is malformed, the script sends the visitor to a (supplied)
error page, with instructions on correcting the form error.
Assuming
all fields are present and correct, the user is sent to a
Thank You page (supplied).
Samples
of what the visitor receives and what you receive are also in
the kit, and viewable below.
The
AwardMail.pl kit features extremely easy set-up, and is a good
choice for Perl newcomers as well as a solid, general purpose
script that's been heavily tested in real use by CodeBrain.

Boiler-plate
submission form you can quickly customize to match your
site's style.

Note that we have the script path shut off on this demo
- it's not functional. This is the only HTML page
you have to modify; and clear, simple instructions are
contained on the AwardMail.pl FAQ page. |
| e_thanks.html |
After
the script "submit" button is hit, it normally
goes to this page. It's a passive page that you
can edit any way you want; just provided with the kit
for easy set-up. |
| e_fail.html |
If
form fields are left blank or the e-mail address is
malformed, the visitor is referred to this page.
Again, you can edit it any way you wish; the
boilerplate is provided in the kit for easy set-up. |
