I am trying to build a form in java script, which I want the user to enter all there information in the form and when they hit the submit button the information will go straight to an email account.


How would I code that? What exactly do you call something lilke that?


Thanks
Newtda

You call it a form-to-mail script, or something similar, and you do it with a server-side language, not Javascript. JS does not have the ability to send email, and hence you need to use a server-side script (for decent results) or a "mailto" action (with a warning box when the user submits the form).
