    Exclamation Sending Form in Email

    For some reason I am not able to send a form to an email using the form code

    <form method="post" action="mailto:myemail@domainname.com">

    (and no I am not using myemail@domainname.com)

    I am getting a little frustrated. Anyone have any good coding that will work besides this? Or do you have any good sites that have good directions on where to find the information?

    Default

    mailto is a reference to the default mail app on the users computer. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mailto

    You'll need a server side code to send the email such as php or asp. If you'd like a php example let us know and someone will provide you with it, if you'd like a user (you) specific answer please post your forms full code.
    Corrections to my coding/thoughts welcome.
