Hello,

I need a contact form on my website, that will send to my email address what the visitor enter in the form fields. The problem is that I can't run any php scripts.. is there a way to use some html form?

Bravenet has those kinds of forms (in html). I once had them on my website.

Thank you for your suggestions! I found a site that offers remotely hosted contact forms, www.emailmeform.com . Basically, I paste the html code in my website, and it calls the php script on their server who sends the email.:smile:
 
Contact form

Why not use some ready web services like http://40secscontactform.com
It is extremely easy to install. There's a video tutorial on the site. And what is the most pleasant - spam protection. Because using simple mailto form means thousands of spam letters in your mailbox.
And another option - http://wrasap.com
A free web based contact form service. I managed to make my personal spam protected contact form in some seconds. They give you an account like login.wrasap.com and it is ready to use at once. Looks very professional.
