I need help making a form processing script for a dreamweaver form page.
I have a novice web form created in dreamweaver that I need to process on my iis6 web server.
I know the root of the problem is the action is blank as shown below.
<p><form id="form1" name="form1" method="post" action="">
I tried writing a php script to process the dreamweaver from a youtube.com how to and it did not work.
Php is working on my windows server as I have messed with formtoemail.php in the past and have that working on one of my test form pages, however I can not make it work with this page.
Could someone who is knowledeable with DW and script writing PLEASE help me with this?
I have attached the html code for the contact_us.html page I am working on.
Thank you

body {
font: 100% Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;
background: #666666;
margin: 0; /* it's good practice to zero the margin and padding of the body element to account for differing browser defaults */

/* Tips for Elastic layouts
1. Since the elastic layouts overall sizing is based on the user's default fonts size, they are more unpredictable. Used correctly, they are also more accessible for those that need larger fonts size since the line length remains proportionate.
2. Sizing of divs in this layout are based on the 100% font size in the body element. If you decrease the text size overall by using a font-size: 80% on the body element or the #container, remember that the entire layout will downsize proportionately. You may want to increase the widths of the various divs to compensate for this.
3. If font sizing is changed in differing amounts on each div instead of on the overall design (ie: #sidebar1 is given a 70% font size and #mainContent is given an 85% font size), this will proportionately change each of the divs overall size. You may want to adjust based on your final font sizing.

If you are going to buy an extension from WebAssist to automate this, I suggest buying Universal Email and not the Contact Form Pack. The Contact Form Pack is a little limited in what it will do and its defaults for the form are not very easy to modify. Universal Email will do basically the same thing and give you more flexibility.
