You have posted this in the HTML section. HTML can only create the form (the actual text boxes) and cannot do anything with the data.
You can use Javascript (but it won't actually DO anything, except manipulate the data on the same page).

To send an email, store this in a database, or basically do anything else with this, you will need to use a serverside language like PHP, ASP, JSP, CGI, etc. The choice is yours, though PHP is my recommendation (it's on most servers and it's not too hard).


There isn't an "easy" way to do this. There are three ways to email a form:
1. Create a PHP script yourself and customize it. This is nice and gives lots of control, but if you aren't good with PHP it will be hard to setup.
2. Use a 'free form mailer'. This will be an external site (probably with ads) that trades its use of ads for your use of their form mailer-- the user will go to their site and it will submit the data to your email. There will be some sort of thank you page-- theirs, not yours. Google "free form mailer" for this. This is actually easy, but it's not very pleasant or controllable. You will get a URL from it, and you'll use that as the action of your form.
3. Here's the easiest (lazy) option: just let the user email it. Set the action of the form to "mailto:your@email.com", and that will automatically open the user's email program with the data filled in, then they can send the message. It will NOT send them to a thank you page, and it will not work for some users (who don't have a default email program setup, like those that use webbased email like gmail and hotmail). Also, this requires that the user sends it manually, or you will not get the data.
