When I go to submit, nothing happens

There is no submit button, just this link:

I am new to HTML and have worked with this form and I know I am making a mistake some where, for
it still does not send the email. If anyone could point out the error I would appreciate this.

Yes, the action is empty. Normally it should point to a script on the server that handles the form and for example sends the result to you by email. HTML can't do things like that, it's just provides the interface to the form. You can use mailto though (see the first link below), but apart from being unreliable, it doesn't really do anything more than open the user's default email client, if there is any, with a prefilled message with his default email address as the sender.

If you can't use a script, IMO it's better to use a service than to use mailto, if it isn't just for play and practice.
