Hi I am creating my first webpage using DreamWeaver CS5.5. I am trying to work on a contact me page and I want the submit button to automatically send me an email with the information provided in the form. I have found a lot of stuff on the internet on how to go about doing this, but I cannot seem to make it work. If you could please provide with me with all the code that is needed to do this I would greatly appreciate it, since I do not know much about code.Thank you for your help in advance.

Here is the code:

  var i,x,a=document.MM_sr; for(i=0;a&&i<a.length&&(x=a[i])&&x.oSrc;i++) x.src=x.oSrc;
}
function MM_preloadImages() { //v3.0
  var d=document; if(d.images){ if(!d.MM_p) d.MM_p=new Array();
    var i,j=d.MM_p.length,a=MM_preloadImages.arguments; for(i=0; i<a.length; i++)
    if (a[i].indexOf("#")!=0){ d.MM_p[j]=new Image; d.MM_p[j++].src=a[i];}}
}

function MM_findObj(n, d) { //v4.01
  var p,i,x;  if(!d) d=document; if((p=n.indexOf("?"))>0&&parent.frames.length) {
    d=parent.frames[n.substring(p+1)].document; n=n.substring(0,p);}
  if(!(x=d[n])&&d.all) x=d.all[n]; for (i=0;!x&&i<d.forms.length;i++) x=d.forms[i][n];
  for(i=0;!x&&d.layers&&i<d.layers.length;i++) x=MM_findObj(n,d.layers[i].document);
  if(!x && d.getElementById) x=d.getElementById(n); return x;
}

function MM_swapImage() { //v3.0
  var i,j=0,x,a=MM_swapImage.arguments; document.MM_sr=new Array; for(i=0;i<(a.length-2);i+=3)
   if ((x=MM_findObj(a[i]))!=null){document.MM_sr[j++]=x; if(!x.oSrc) x.oSrc=x.src; x.src=a[i+2];}

Here is the part that I want to do the submit with so you do not have to go through the whole code:

<form action="sendresults.php" method="post" name="Contact form"><table border="0" align="center">
  <tr>
    <td width="90"><font color="#666666" face="Agency FB" size="+2">First Name: </font></td>
    <td width="359"><input name="firstName" type="text" size="30" maxlength="30" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><font color="#666666" face="Agency FB" size="+2">Last Name: </font></td>
    <td><input name="lastName" type="text" size="30" maxlength="30" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><font color="#666666" face="Agency FB" size="+2">E-mail Address: </font></td>
    <td><input name="email" type="text" size="30" maxlength="50" /></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><font color="#666666" face="Agency FB" size="+2">Comment: </font></td>
    <td><textarea name="comment" cols="50" rows="10"></textarea></td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td><p>&nbsp;</p><a href="confirm.html" onMouseOut="MM_swapImgRestore()" onMouseDown="MM_swapImage('submitbtn','','submitbtnpush.png',1)"><img src="submitbtn.png" alt="Submit" name="submitbtn" width="161" height="38" border="0"></a></td>
  </tr>
</table>
</form>
