Thread: Please help Form wont email

Hi,
I have set up the form and it looks good, but when I preview it and fill it out, it does not email. I even have the "mailto:" in there. What am I doing wrong?

"mailto" method is not ideal for gathering and sending data from a form. I (as well as most here) would suggest that you use a php mailto method. Here is a tutorial for it.

Once you are comfortable with this- upgrade to this one:

Also- David has some ready made forms that you can use and then modify to match your site. You can find them here:

Hope that gives ya some food for thought.
