sorry i still dont get it.. could you show me by putting the code in ... im a visual learner.

The form is a dead lifeless item unless it has an "action", which tells it what to do with the data input - eg add to a database, search a database, or send an email. The action is the name of the script which will process the data.

Your form has no action listed at all. (see line 5)

You need to set up a php email script to take each line of data input, check for spammers using it, and then create an email.

google on php email.

set up a php script first
