How can I have info from a web form emailed to someone via the submit button?
 
I can use a Microsoft Small Business Server to develop the site, but I dont know who will actually be hosting it. Should I be looking for ASP resources on this one? I havent used ASP yet but would like to learn, where do I start?

Thanks for your patients.
 
using ASPmail is a very easy form of sending a form. When you're looking for your hosting service all see if they have ASPmail available for you to use. Otehrwise hosting companies will usually or I should say always have mailto's available in your cgi-bin for you to use. The only downfall with the mailto programs they will have available is most of the time the formating is real basic.
example
name = you
email = somewhere
with ASPmail and others you have the opurtunity to make things look a little more presentable such as using headers and footers and so on. Setting this up is very simple and not the most indepth coding. [bomb]
I may not get it the 1st or 2nd time,
but how sweet that 15th time can be.
