I am a beginner writing my first website and so far everything is coming along really well except 2 things: I cannot get my contact page form to email to me, and a javascript I placed in the beginning page works on the computer, but not when I load it to the actual web site, it fails to come up (it is a pop up window). I have a book on HTML that I am reading that I really like and I also have found lots of help on htmlgoodies.com but can't seem to figure out where I am going wrong with the form and the javascript. Could someone look at my code and please help? I read the post at the top of the forum page about forms but I don't really understand it.
This is the html for the page with the form on it that I can't get to send me anything:
<HTML>
<HEAD>
<TITLE>Summon the knowledge of the Sisters</TITLE>
</HEAD>
<BODY TEXT="#FFFFFF" BACKGROUND="Stripes.jpg">
<P ALIGN="center"> <FONT SIZE="7"> <FONT FACE="KissMeKissMeKissMe, Book Antiqua">Call Upon the Sisters</FONT></P>
<P ALIGN="center"><FONT SIZE="4"><FONT FACE="Apple Butter, Book Antiqua"><B>If you would like advice on a problem in your life or if there's something wrong
with the website, just Summon the Sisters! You don't have to leave your real name, but you do
have to leave your email address so we can respond to your question. We reserve the right to post
your question and answer anonomously on our advice page, but know that we are not doctors or
trained professionals and you will probably receive a smart ass answer if we don't just totally
rip on you.</B></FONT></P>
