    you cant just do it with simple html like that.

    you need an asp/php mail script or something and also access to some form of smtp server to relay the mail thru.

    google is your friend :up:

    Scotty1120 deffinitely knows how to do this because he's got this function and many others on his anime website.

    Give him a PM and I'm sure he'll sort you out.

    Sleepy's right, you need a script or an SMTP mailserver to bounce the mail through.

    If you have CGI-BIN on your webspace give this link a look:

    Or failing that scotty knows more about it ;)
