Thank you everybody for your input and advice.

Already spent a good few hours working out how to get data from a HTML Webform into the CGI script then getting that info into a simple unstructured / formatted PDF document and then attaching the PDF document to an email using user info such as the persons name and email address and all's working a treat so far.

The mail recipient is recieving the email and the attachment with the data i put into the PDF document.

Very Happy So Far

I've decided that i will need to get roughly a minimum of 43 bits of data into the PDF document and upto a maximum of 53 parts of info, this includes one perhaps two images / logo's. Some of the data is blocks of text. I haven't tried to get an image in yet, that's todays task

Today's task is also to find out how to get clickable links in there, "Go to MyWebsite" "send MeAnEmail"

Today's task is also to work out / research how to position this data in a specific location on the page

Wish me luck!

Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
