I would like to make a form that allows me to enter information and then that information is posted to another webpage. Can anyone recommend a website or tutorial that will explain this to me?

Hmm, you are probably going to want to use some kind of server side language, I would personally recommend php (http://php.net), but that decision is up to you. If you can't use a server side language, you may be able to do a limited form of this using javascript...but I wouldn't know how to do that very well.

Anyway, if you go the server side route, here are a couple decent tutorials:

http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/programming/php/tutorials/tutorial4.html (recquires php and mysql)

Of course, you are going to want to spend time actually learning the language you choose as it will make things a lot easier in the long run. Good luck :thumbsup:
