You need to use either cgi or something like PHP.

The submit button will not do any of the commands you require... it will mearly pass the form to a cgi script (written in Perl), which sits in your web servers cgi-bin. This script will process the form data and send it to the relavent e-mail recipient.

ok...

u can't have form submitted using .html files.
usually, we use .cgi or .php files...

for me, i use .php files using the mail() function.

u might want to have 2 files.
1. .html file where u have ur form
2. .php file where u have mail() function to send email to ur account.
