When I tried my form to see it it worked, my browser had a connection failure. I had some friends try and it didn't work for them either. What's wrong with it?

<form action="mailto:maep88@bellsouth.net" method="post" name="FormName" enctype="text/plain" >
<input type="hidden" name="To" value="Graphical Application" border="0">
<p>Name:<br>
<input type="text" name="Name" size="50" maxlength="100" border="0"><br>
Email Address:<br>
<input type="text" name="Email" size="50" maxlength="100" border="0"><br>
Website (Optional):<br>
<input type="text" name="Website" size="50" maxlength="100" border="0"><br>
Check all that you can make:<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkboxName" value="checkboxValue" border="0"> Layouts<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkboxName" value="checkboxValue" border="0"> Avatars<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkboxName" value="checkboxValue" border="0"> Wallpapers<br>
<input type="checkbox" name="checkboxName" value="checkboxValue" border="0"> Other<br>
If other, what?<input type="text" name="textfieldName" size="35" maxlength="50" border="0"><br>
Why would you like to join?<br>
<textarea name="textareaName" rows="5" cols="50"></textarea><br>
<input type="submit" name="Apply" value="Ready to Apply?" border="0"><input type="reset" value="Ah! I made a mistake!" border="0"></p>
</form>

Well if I could try and join the thing I would then see what was wrong, But for my younger bros and sisters safety I took the e-mail directly from a website off of the PC sorry :'(

i accidently posted this on the other posting. i think this is the right one now :)

i don't think this feature is supported by internet explorer :/ here's an article i found http://home.att.net/~knoblock/mailto_forms.html just scroll down to 'Q: Why does Internet Explorer not work with a mailto form?'
