A Little Help with Thank You Page

Hi guys,

I created a simple web form for an upcoming website... Everything seems to work fine except on the Thank You page, it shows the e-mail address where the form was sent.

I called tech support and then e-mailed me the hidden variable to send visitors to a pre-made HTML thank you page. The problem is, I don't know anything about HTML (started my class yesterday) and I don't know where to put this variable.

I do want the form to go to the e-mail address I indicate, but not to show the e-mail address on the thank you page.

Here's the simple form I have created in Dreamweaver:
<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" />
<title>Web Form</title>
</head>

<body>
<form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="/cgi/formmail">
<table width="304" border="0" align="center">
<tr>
<td width="118">Name</td>
<td width="176"><input type="text" name="textfield" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>e-mail </td>
<td><input type="text" name="textfield2" /></td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td><a href="index.html">Home</a></td>
<td></td>
</tr>
</table>
<p>
<input name="recipient" type="hidden" id="recipient" value="pac@domain.com" />
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit" />

</p>
</form>
</body>
</html>


And here is the variable they sent me:

<input type=hidden name="redirect" value="http://your.host.com/to/file.html">

Can sombody please help!

Thank you troytime and sorry for the delayed answer/post, but after I left home Friday I wasn't able to log-in (I have aol as my ISP).

What you mentioned worked - I also had to create a thank you page.
