A static HTML page cannot send emails.
You need an MTA (mail transfer agent) to do that.
FlabbyRabbit has posted how you can use PHP as MTA:
http://www.devppl.com/forum/send-an-email-from-you-website-vt8833.html
In HTML all you can do is send the information to the server (where it will be processed by php in our example above) or use mailto:
| Code: |
| <a href="mailto:my.name@example.org">my email link</a> |
, which will only open the users default mailing program.
cheers!

| You can use http://emailmeform.com you just fill out the stuff you want on your form and they will generate it for you, all you have to do is put it on your page and they send the info to you. Good if your server doesnt support PHP. |
