edit "form_builder"

change "db.prints" to the path and filename of the database
(the prints database in this case)

The line
<FORM ACTION="http:/cgi-bin/Art/Prints/check_query" METHOD="POST>
                            ==========
refers to a program we are going to run, change the underlined
part to whatever directory you create to put the "check_query" in.
We'll move "check_query" there later.


run "form_builder" telling it what name to give it's output..e.g.

form_builder prints_form.html

Move prints_form.html to wherever you want to.

-=-=-=-=-

edit "config.h"

You'll need to change 4 items,

DATABASE_FILENAME
MAIL_COMMAND
DATABASE_MAINTAINER
IMAGE_HREF         (this one could be left alone, or drop //rubens.anu.edu.au)

-=-=-=-=-=-

run "make"   (if you don't have gcc, edit Makefile to use cc instead)

You'll now have 3 executable programs

check_query
comment_collector
perform_query

These should be moved into the ======= underlined directory
that you created earlier.

edit "comment_collector.html"

<FORM  ACTION="http:/cgi-bin/Art/Prints/comment_collector" METHOD="POST">
                            ===========

Change as before.
Move "comment_collector.html" to wherever you put the FORM prints_form.html

-=-=-=-=-=-

If all went well,
repeat the above procedure for the architecture database,
this time you'll have to do more editing. "form_builder" will need
a complete facelift, and config.h will need to be told the field names,
the max number of fields and most important, the output format.

To change the output format, you'll need to know a little about
C/awk/perl formatting using %s. Hopefully, the existing format
description will guide you in this process.
