How can I include a custom form into my Serendipity site?

I have Serendipity installed in the root directory. I need a custom form so I created a new directory and uploaded the form there. My next question is how to process the form results. My host is GoDaddy and I typically use gdform.cgi. Will it cause any problems to have a cgi bin directory along side the serendipity folders?

Hi!

Usually you can operate cgis and other scripts on the same host directory, yes. Only if you are using mod_rewrite URL Rewriting you might need to put a .htaccess file into each of your non-related subdirectories with this content:

Code: Select all

RewriteEngine Off
