I've never needed to set up a contact form before and I'm not sure why this doesn't work? http://www.petersonlegal.ca/contact.html
(http://www.petersonlegal.ca/contact.html)

Is there something I have to put on the server or is there something wrong with the code?

<form action="mailto:bp.paralegal@gmail.com" method="get"
enctype="text/plain">
<p> Name <input id="name" size="30" type="text"> </p>
<p> Email <input id="email" size="30" type="text"> </p>
<p> Phone # <input id="phone" size="30" type="text"> </p>
<p> Comments<br>
<textarea id="comments" rows="5" cols="30"></textarea> </p>
<p> <input value="Send" type="submit"> <input type="reset"> </p>
</form>

You need a script to handle the form.

I use this one.

Here's one of the pages that I use it on.

Thank Cleo, I'm a real dummy at this. Where do I put the script? I've never used one before.

Put it at the root of your domain.
