I'm in the process of puting together a website for the local stunt crew here in Oklahoma City. It's nothing special yet, as my HTML is extremely rusty and I'm tryin to teach myself some Flash and Javascript and such...but not doing a very good job at doing so... Anywho, I'm trying to get a contact page set up that willl not require the use of an external email client such as outlook...just a simple form that can be filled out and the message can be sent internally directly from the web site. Is there any kind of script that can do this, or am I doomed to having it send externally?
Thanks in advance for any help

https://www.formspring.com/ , the free one should do the trick for you.

I write web apps for a living so if you have any questions or need some quick help shoot me a PM. Also I appreciate you doing it yourself instead of taking the approach of asking someone to do it for you and saying "it will great exposure for you!".

That looks pretty cool...
For a way simple approach, you could also just set your action in the form tag to something like this:
<form action="mailto:aaa@aaa.com" method="get" enctype="text/plain">

I also write web apps for money and would be happy to help.

Most web hosting companies will have some facility to send email from a web page, not sure where you're going to host the site but check to see if they have something already.

You can also do:
<a href=mailto:email@address.com?subject=web%20email>email us</a>

This will actually open up your default email application such as outlook if you have it installed.

and as far as the layout is concerned, I would suggest buying one, it's quicker than coming up with a design.
templatemonster dot com

You can find something you like for about $60. It'll save you tons of time if you can find something you like and you still get to do the actual HTML editing yourself.

Already put together a custom layout. Nothing fancy, but it's simple and I like it for what it's about. I'm not actually the owner of the domain, just know a little more about designing and such than she does so I've been helpin' her set it up. Take a look at it if you want... And if you feel like droppin' an opinion, please feel free to do so
