Sorry for being a newb, but can someone point me in the right direction for activating the "submit" button and directing it somewhere? I'm using Microsoft Expression and downloaded the CSS Tableless Form from the library and got it working in preview but I don't know how to make the buttons live.

Should it just be dumping the information into a cgi.bin folder? And if so how do you differentiate the information if each form submitted applies to a different person.

Is the key the value I put in the quotation marks? <input type="text" id="emailaddress" value="" />


Thanks

What you're asking has nothing to do with CSS or even JavaScript. Basically you need to install a form processing script on the server side (ie: PHP or CGI) to handle the form submission part. There are many such scripts on the web, such as: http://cgi.resourceindex.com/Programs_and_Scripts/Perl/Form_Processing/
