I want to create a page with a mandatory from that has to have he user
type in info then when submitted takes the user to another page? I don't
want the user to see the next page (the one after the form). I need to
force people to fill the form out and then go to the next page I don't
want them to be able to bookmark the page or save the page(is this
possible)


Thanks in Advance 
Maverick

Yes'ish. Use a single CGI script to:

1. Paint the form, AND

2. Then process the form and paint the results.

Be sure to use the POST method on the form so that the submitted
values are not placed on the query portion of the URL. Like most
things it can be defeated but it's not too easy. If you need it
more secure than that you'll have to get sneaky ;-)
