    send email when condition it met

    I have a form that stores information in a table, but I also need it
    to send an email when a specific question, among the many, is answered
    with no

    the question is a simple drop box:

    <select name="safe_acce ss">
    <option value="0"></option>
    <option value="yes">Yes </option>
    <option value="no">No</option>
    </select>

    and the javascript validation is:

    //safe_access
    if ( form.safe_acces s.selectedIndex == 0 ){
    alert ( "Please select whether or not there is safe access to the
    beach." );
    form.safe_acces s.focus();
    return false;
    }

    how do I get it to send an email, and still store information in the
    table when someone answers no?

    I've done several searches, but they all keep bringing up how to email
    the form instead of what I am looking for.

    Thanks

      Do you intend to store the data in the table AND send email via
      javascript?
      Or do you have some server-side script to do it for you?

          right now the form action sends the information to a php script which
          stores the information in the table:

          <form action="thankyo u.php" method="post" name="form" id="form">

                  when the answer is "NO",
                  it is NOT to the tune of "Do you want to subscribe to our newsletter
                  (and other unsolicited mail)?"
                  Is it?

                      the question is actually:

                      Is there safe access? (yes/no)

                      it's one of many questions, but if the answer to this one is no than
                      an email needs to be sent to another person alerting them of the
                      problem ASAP instead of waiting for them to look at all the answers at
                      a later time, the person filling out the form isn't asked for their
                      email
