    Re: html problem....

    The form action should be set to use a script to send the info, instead of trying to directly email the form info to your email address. This is a very common problem. The simpler solution is the use of a php script. The form action should be the same as the php script name. And the encoding should be set to "multipart/form-data"

    Please have a look at BlueVoda Form Tutorial 1 where all this is explained very well. Please read carefully the TEXT under the multimedia presentation.
