Hey, i need a form on my website badly, an order form. It's not secured, i dont know how to do that, so if you can tell me how to secure my site, id appreciate it.. or get a secure subdomain, whatever.. anyways... my HTML form

<form method="post" action="mailto:chandler_zwolle01@hotmail.com">
<input type="text" name="name" size="30">
<input type="submit">
</form>


is very basic, and security issues pop up for most people, and you have to have a outlook account, etc. just hectic....

alot of websites you can just type in stuff, submit it, and it goes, thats all i want..

i just want a nice looking order form (and i wanna know the code, i just dont wanna copy it) that sends me info from my customers, from my website.... that doesnt require any email or any popups..
im really in a rush sry for all my short hand..
and i want to make it so when its done it goes back to homepage, anything.. just point me in a direction to learn the web language to do this... im willing to learn new languages also, now i just know hTML and i wanna expad m horizonss more. thx bye helpppp lol im in sucha hurryy help!!! HELP!! thanks ! :)

That is not really a good form at all. You will need to get a proper form mail sender such as the one I helped out with at http://www.webhostingtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=362957.

If you want to secure your site, you will need to purchase an SSL certificate for your domain.

first of all, that will not work for all users.
Secondly, it is pretty bad [you also expose your email addy]

what support do you have on your servers? [which languages?]
