Thumbs up data from forms

Hi, totaly new to web design, bought Dreamweaver 8 and it worked, just need a little bit of help on getting a script to send the form data to me by email. i use names.co.uk as a host, and unfortunatly, they say scripting is down to me. Tried creating the form, but it did not work, so i dumped it, downloaded anothere script from somewhere, but did not know where to place the code on the page.

Well, your first option is to simply make your form tag look like:
Code:
<form action='mailto:me@mydomain.com' method='post' enctype='text/plain'>
That, though, will require the user to have an email client configured on their computer, and will, in most cases, require them to press the "Send/Receive" button in their email client.

Your next option is to go with something like Phorm or whichever PHP form processor Leprakawn likes to recommend (I can't remember off the top of my head which one that is).
