Ok. I have text ares for ppl to type in and whenever I click submit, a messagecomes up asking if is till want to e-mail it and I click ok and them outlook express comes up, why? My friend tried it, and i got the e-mail, but is there a way to fix it??
the problem is you are using a MAILTO in your ACTION property. this is not widely supported and thus causes that effect you spoke of to happen.
the solution is to :
a) create/find/upload your own script to process emails in a server side language such as PHP or Perl/CGI.
b) use an online script that is free such as http://www.bravenet.com

I use CGI mail forms so I just have to use submit and the form action is "/cgi-bin/cgiemail" method="post" which mails to me.
