Form Method (HTML)

[bluestriker]

Hello, I need help with one of my forms. It is an order form that I am making for my web design site. I am using HTML to build it. I know, I could be using PHP but none of the forms in PHP ever seem to work for me. Anyhoo, on my form, when you go to click submit, it asks you for your Outlook Express info, blah blah blah. Also, my method, action, whatever you want to call it, is like this...

Code:

<form action="MAILTO:webdesign@thesecretbase.com" method="post">

I however, do not want the form to use Outlook Express, and I don't want to use PHP or it won't work. So is there any way I could change the action so that it just sends an email to the account specified through the website instead of through Outlook Express? Thanks.

i don't believe thats possible without a scripting language like PHP.

You could always try this if you really wanted, I don't quite know how it works, years ago I used something like this but I can't remember the name of the site anymore so this URL suggestion will have to do

Oh thanks a bunch, but I just kept the form and got a PHP code....that actually works! I also decorated the form a little bit so it wasn't so plain.
