on my son''s site and it works great. Just take out or modify that the lines

I tried doing this a while back and it just would not work. The form worked
like a mailto anchor tag. The <FORM> tag I used was:

<FORM action=mailto:[address goes here] method=post title=Contact>

Is this wrong or do mailto forms simply not work?

Subject: first form email

Hi -

I need to create a simple form to take names and addresses and then email
the values to a given address.

So far I've tried..

<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION="mailto:spinder(at)stlawrencecement.com">

But this gives me a windows warning about disclosing my email address and
then my Outlook email form pops up.

Could someone help with this?  In the meantime I'm searching on the net for
examples..

Thanks!
