Hi Rebecca,
You are going to have to set up a form page in HTML and then use some
sort of processing script to either store the data in a database or mail
it to you email address.
the first thing you need to do is to find out what your web host has
for a scripting language - such as PERL, ASP, ColdFusion or PHP. Then
you'll need to set up the form page, and then the action page (the page
that does all the processing). I have some mailer scripts for ASP and
ColdFusion you may find useful if your ISP uses either of those server
side scripting languages.
In a nutshell contact me off-list. I'll be glad to help.
regards,
larry
