[pmwiki-users] Forms Example

I can't help with inserting it into a new wiki page per se (although that
doesn't seem too hard-  just use the edit controls and target the PmWiki
script),  but I can show you a form I wrote that calls an external CGI.

>From my wiki at wiki.saberpunk.net,  here's a form that searches a Yahoo!
mailing list:

(:input form "http://au.groups.yahoo.com/group/wushurpg/messagesearch" GET:)
(:input text query "" size=50:)
(:input submit "Submit" "Search":)
(:input end:)

A little simple,  but maybe it'll help?
