FP2002: formatting forms output

[marblechain]

Hi.

I am trying to create a form which allows anyone to enter a URL link and then have that link appear on the same page, formatted as an addition to a list of URL links. Something like a bookmarks or favorites page. I can get the text to appear but I can't figure out how to format the text in HTML to appear as a hyperlink.

I'm now convinced that I will need some kind of javascript or cgi script to do this but I have no scripting skills. Any advice would be welcome.

I have the same problem and learned that you have to know how to make cgi scripts with Perl. I figured it would take about 6 months to learn that. There are scripts already on the internet. Do a search for free cgi scripts.

Yes - I finally managed to do it with a WONDERFUL PHP script called "phplinks". Click below for more details but beware, it requires PHP and MySQL on the server.
