Hi!
I have created a website from a template but can't get the form working correctly. The page in question is here: www.magicbyseth.net/contact.html When I click on the 'submit' button, it opens the email client instead of submitting the form. I have some simple error somwhere but haven't been able to figure it out. Any help is much appreciated. |

Opens no email client for me. It can't. The form just submits to the URL of the page it's in, i.e. the page reloads.
At one point you probably had mailto in there somewhere. That would bring up your email client (if you have one and if the browser is configured to bring it up when a mailto form or link is activated). To handle the form properly you need a script on the server. See http://htmlhelp.com/faq/html/forms.html#form-howto and http://htmlhelp.com/faq/html/forms.html#mailto-form . |
