Only use frames if you're using multiple pages that you want to be shown on one page. Why not use <hr> for seperation? Or a table?

ok, i have finished this page to an extent ...
i may add a few more pages but the basis is done

is it possable for when you click the "SUBMIT" link for it to open hotmail {or other email client} and not microsoft outlook?
and also i have inserted a box with text init, i want to have this text highlighted so that when text is typed it dissapears {obviously} but with out you highlighting the text yourself?
thanks

-------------------------------------------------------------

i have made the form, set it to mail-to my email address and the site is finished with the exeption of a few pages i MAY add later.
i have a problem on the form though, oridinally i set it to have them in frames, but when  i added the "submit" button it only submitted he second frame {the one that the button was in}
this - being an abvious and big problem - had to be solved, thinking if i deleted the frames and then set it as 1 form would work i edited the codes.
thinking i had done them right i checked them only to find that when i click "submit" it still only sends the information from the seond half of the form.
maybe i have a part of the codes wrong?
any help would be much appreciated.
thanks

As I stated before: DON'T USE FRAMES! Now you see an example why.

---

<option value="-16"> Below 16 years

you should use < 16 instead of -16

quote:

---

<option value="Above 61 years"> Above 61 years

and here > 61 instead of Above 61 years

The problem was that you didn't have the name=""-attribute with some fields. I've corrected in the code:

code:

---

<form action="MAILTO:kryptonate@gmail.com" method="post" enctype="text/plain">
<p>
<label for="FN">First name* </label>
<input type="text" size="13" name="FirstName" id="FN" />
</p>
<p><label for="LN">Last name* </label>
<input type="text" size="13" name="LastName" id="LN"/>
</p>
<p><label for="CN">Contact number* </label><input type="number" size="10" name="ContactNumber" id="CN" />
</p>
<p><label for="EA">Email address </label><input type="text" size="35" name="E-mailAddress" value="example: kryptonate@gmail.com" id="EA" /></p>

I've also added labels (you can change the name of them or even remove them if you like), that makes it a bit nicer, but you should use a table for presenting it good.

Another thing as I stated before:

quote:

---

</head>
<center>

---

has to be

code:

---

</head>
<body>
<center>

---

Even if you put a body-selector in your CSS you still have to place <body> in your htmlcode.
