Hi Matt!

Unfortunately the only way to automatically write to the server from a
Web Page is by using CGI in some shape or form. Otherwise you'll have to
get people to e-mail you the details using a 'form method=mailto' etc.,
and do it by hand. Unfortunately you can't send file attachments this
way! (I don't think so, anyhow...)

Sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings, however you can get CGI pretty
cheep if you shop around.
