Simple Form is a form processor written in Perl. It is designed to be simple,
quick, and usable for any form. It emails its results to an admin user, and it
is very easy to set up.

A routine was added to remove linefeeds from email
headers as an anti-spam precaution. The ability to
use a template for response pages was added, as
well as the ability to use SSI files in the
template. A "hook" was created to enable users to
customize a Perl include file containing
calculations on the form fields, such as totaling
orders. The include file can contain code to
transmit order totals to a live credit card Web
site. Thus, the script can be expanded without
modification of the main script file. A problem
with passing checkbox values through the preview
function was fixed.
This is a critical security upgrade intent upon frustrating spammers in their attempts to use scripts like this as open mail relays. The variables admin_email_to and admin_email_from have been removed from the form parameters to stop spammers from potentially setting the to and from fields via the URL line. The variables are now set in the script. The script has the ability to store admin_email_to, admin_email_from, and return_path in a secondary script file, providing for multiple form usage. Additional security fixes have been applied.
Data can now be previewed. The script now sends
mail correctly on Windows machines. The ability
to show blank check box and radio button fields
was added along with a field tag method for
modifying email subject lines and the ability to
check for "either or" required fields.
This version fixes a bug with checkboxes and multiple select lists so that multiple field values of the same name get processed correctly, adds code to check for invalid email addresses, and adds table code wrapped around the error messages.
