Try adding 'name="submit"' to your input element?

[Drazan]

Never use an open form like that without any "processing" to strip out HTML hacks/injections and spammers. As well as Captcha to block bots from using your open code as a spam server.

try this instead

Hi, thank you both for the reply,

I did use that suggestion you made Jade and it works great for the contact form, however i am really needing to know how to get a html webform with a php back submitting properly as I have another form which is much larger (with colour pickers etc) that I am making but i need to know how to get the damn thing sending.

The form you told me about doesnt seem to have any html in it?

Or am i wrong.

Thanks again, i do really appreciate your time.
