When you find a Web Form in a search engine or link directory, etc... that you wish to include in your AddWeb submissions, you will first want to note the Name of the site, the Home Page URL and the Web Form URL.

Click on the Add Engine button and enter The engine name in the Engine Name field. Also, insert the Home Page URL and Form URL into the appropriate fields.

Then you will want to provide a brief description and define the length of time the engine is expected to post submissions. This is probably a good time to determine where you want to categorize this engine.

NOTE: Engine Group and Engine Category will NOT allow for duplicate names. Creating duplicate names can cause unwanted results.

Go to the form page and open the HTML source of that page.

You will first want to search for the word 'action'. This is a common method of locating the Form Action URL or a portion of it. If the form action is not a complete URL, combine it with the current URL in the address bar of your browser. Adjust placement of relative URL with the current URL according to how the relative URL is inserted.

Enter the complete URL into Engine Builders Action URL field. You will also see the action method as either a GET or a POST. Select the action method accordingly.
