Web Page Sample

The following links point to directories rather than files, so that you can readily see what files are involved in creating each type of PonyExpress form. In all cases, the actual form is named "form.html"; in typical situations this would be the index.html file within the directory.

Take advantage of your browser's "View/Source" menu option to look at the HTML for the forms in this example. Note that this form uses the action "/phpbin/captcha/index.php" in place of "/htbin/ponyexpress2" to reduce spamming.

  1. Guestbook - By adding an output.template file, the form now writes to another HTML page, making a simple guestbook.
