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
