I thought this was for _discussing the development of HTML_, not for asking frequently asked questions and telling wrong answers to them. As regards to the evolution of HTML, I think there is clear need for a standardized method for specifying that a form be sent as a mail (RFC 822) message to a given address or list of addresses. The specification need not be part of HTML specification proper; it might be separate short W3C recommendation. Now people are writing miscellaneous CGI scripts, trying to persuade webmasters to install them, wondering how to write programs which process the messages without really knowing their exact syntax, etc. Yucca, http://www.hut.fi/~jkorpela/
