ok ja I now realise that.
I think im going to just get the user to fill out the forms, the details will be captured and showed in a structured way and the user can print that and fax it to me.
My code for this doesnt want to work>??????????
Just want the username for now so that i can get this thing working, will concerntrate on the finer details later.
Im not a pro at this please advise me what to do........

The easiest way to get it to work, is use FrontPage. Since I can't program (nor do I want to), If I need to make an email form, I'd make it in frontpage. Just make sure your server has frontpage extensions installed.
