Um...what? HTML forms can point to a variety of document types...guessing
that he'll be looking at a perl solution seems a bit far-fetched.

Um, first issue: Most forms are set up to refer to a module written
in
a language called PERL, and that module is interfaced to the HTML
though something called CGI (the Common Gateway Interface). It would
be
possible that your form was written to use the language Java, or
javascript, but it's quite unlikely. Thus, you need to learn about
CGI,
not Java or javascript.
