    How to do create forms that email you/

    Hi,
    I have just completed a college course in basic HTML/web design. To finish off my website I would love to be able to create a really simple form that customers can insert their name, email address and enquiry and then that enquiry gets emailed to me. This is so that I don’t have to put my email address up on the website.

    HTML cannot do this. You would need javascript.

          Actually, this can be done with html if you put your email using 'mailto' into the "action" attribute of the form tag. However, your email address is still present to be read in the source.
