WebMailer Lite is a form-to-e-mail Common Gateway Interface (CGI ) application that processes HTML form data and sends it in a customizable format to a standard Internet e-mail account. Popular applications are guestbook forms and user feedback forms, and other applications that require that form data be sent to an e-mail account.

WebMailer Lite does not require any programming knowledge other than an understanding of basic HTML to quickly implement form generation and processing on a Web site. WebMailer Lite supports queuing of failed messages, and displays a page of the form data that has been submitted.

• Supports required fields that must be filled in by the user
• E-mails HTML form results to you immediately after confirming that all required fields have been filled in
• Supports multiple e-mail recipients
• Form data submitted is displayed on the user’s browser following processing
• Optional redirection to another HTML page following processing

WebMailer Lite is a Common Gateway Interface (CGI) application that runs on your Web server. Form data is sent to WebMailer Lite by the server software when the user submits the form, and WebMailer Lite returns any results to the web server, which displays them on the user’s browser.

Following is a more detailed general flow of WebMailer Lite operations.

• Multiple recipients are allowed.
• The message body contains a standard form dump of all form variables.

• This is a web page created on the fly by WebMailer Lite that lists form data sent, or the user can be redirected to another URL.

WebMailer Lite requires a Web server running on Windows 95 or NT 4.0 on the Intel platform. This product has not yet been tested for compatibility with FX!32 translation software on the Alpha platform.

1. Insert the diskette into the disk drive.
2. From the Start Menu, choose Run…
3. In the Run dialog box, type A:\SETUP.EXE and then click OK. If A: is not your floppy drive, then replace A: with the appropriate drive letter.
4. The installation program will ask if you want to unarchive WebMailer Lite, display the license agreement, and then guide you through the installation procedure.

The installation program will ask you to choose a directory for the executable and documentation. The installation program will always create a directory named WMLITE in the directory you have selected. This is where the program itself (WMLITE.EXE) and configuration file will be installed.

You will need to select a directory for the included sample forms. The installation program will always create a directory named SAMPLES in the directory you have selected.

You should choose a directory in your DOCS or WWWROOT tree, or other directory in which HTML pages are accessible through the web server. Do not install the samples in a CGI-BIN or Scripts directory as you cannot typically access HTML files from these directories.

For Netscape servers, you will need to ensure that CGI has been activated as a type on the server, or you will need to add the WMLITE directory to the list of CGI-BIN directories. This is done through the web server administration program.

If you do not activate CGI as a type, then you must add the WMLITE directory to the CGI-BIN directories list because otherwise WebMailer Lite will not be recognized as a CGI by Netscape and will not run.

Activating CGI as a type means that any .EXE file in any accessible directory is assumed to be a CGI.. If you do this, then you will not need to add the WMLITE directory to the CGI-BIN directories list.

However, we recommend that you add the WMLITE directory to the CGI-BIN directories list, in any case, and name the URL prefix "/WMLite". This will make it easier to use the included samples, as they refer to this directory. Otherwise, you will need to modify the samples to the correct URL for WMLITE.EXE.

You will need to create a virtual directory that points to the WMLITE directory. If you are using IIS, this is done from the Internet Service Manager Manager, in the Directories Tab of the Web Service Properties. If you are using PWS, run the Internet Services Administrator, and select the Directories Tab under the WWW Services page.

We recommend that you call this virtual directory /WMLite for compatibility with the included sample forms. Be sure to grant this virtual directory Execute permissions from within the web server administration program.

Note that if even your WMLITE directory is located in your /Scripts directory, you will still need to create a virtual directory specifically for the WMLITE directory. This is due to behavior by IIS and PWS that reports to WebMailer Lite that the current directory

is the /Scripts directory, instead of /Scripts/WMLite.

Because WebMailer Lite looks for the configuration file in the current directory, the current directory reported must be the WMLITE directory. Therefore it is always necessary, in any case, to create a virtual directory specifically for the WMLITE directory.

In general, make sure that WebMailer Lite is installed in a directory from which the web server allows executables to be run. How this is accomplished will vary on your web server.

If you use the services of an Internet Service Provider (ISP) for your web site, then you will need to consult with your ISP for instructions on how they accommodate their users’ CGI programs. How you upload the WebMailer Lite files will also depend on the ISP; usually you will need to use FTP (File Transfer Protocol) to upload HTML files and CGI programs.

You will need to upload WMLITE.EXE and WEBMLR.INI (these files that are created in the WMLITE directory during local installation) to the location your ISP provides for your CGI programs. Depending on your ISP, this may be a central CGI-BIN or Scripts directory where all users’ CGI programs are stored, or it may be a local CGI-BIN or Scripts directory in the directory designated as the home directory for your site.

In any case, you will also need to replicate the entire GEOCEL directory structure and files that were created at installation underneath the WMLITE directory.

Using WebMailer Lite with HTML forms is very easy. Using your favorite HTML editor, create a form as you normally would. The form's action value will need to be set to reflect the directory where the program was installed. For example, the form header might be:

Each of the settings in the previous section can then be included in most cases using the "HIDDEN" HTML input type. The obvious exceptions would be the fields for the visitor's email address as well as the credit card fields which would be specified as the "TEXT" input type in this case.

Please refer to an HTML reference guide for more information about creating forms.

WebMailer Lite uses the contents of the actual form along with default settings from the WEBMLR.INI initialization file (please refer to Appendix B for a description of the entries in this file) to determine which actions to perform once the user has submitted the form. To pass parameters to the program through a form, you will need to specify a 'NAME' and 'VALUE' for each form object. For example, to save a person's name you would use the following tag inside the '<FORM>' tags of your form.

Once the user submits the form, WebMailer Lite will return the value of the 'Last_Name' variable in an e-mail message to webmaster@abc.com.

WebMailer Lite reserves certain values to control form processing. By specifying the value of these variables, you can customize the behavior and output of the program. Most of these variables may be specified as the 'HIDDEN' input type . Many of the variables can also be used to retrieve information from the user within the form. In this case, the input type should be specified as "TEXT" For example:

To set the receipt's subject field yourself so that it is always the same, you could use the following tag within the form:

<INPUT TYPE="HIDDEN" NAME="RECEIPT_SUBJECT" VALUE="Your receipt">

To allow the user to enter this information, so that they can set the subject of the message which they will receive, the following tag should be used within the form:

<INPUT TYPE="TEXT" NAME="SUBJECT" VALUE="">

Notice the difference in the input type.

The following is a list of keywords that the program will recognize:
