You need to make the input items part of an HTML form and then use a script to email you the form items (or do whatever else you want to do with them). There are a lot of scripts available that will do the form processing for you and you can find them at http://hotscripts.com. Depending on your needs you might look at http://formtools.org and try out Form Tools as an interface for any form you make. It doesn't make the form (you still have to do that in HTML), but processes the information. You can use it with multiple forms and it will let you choose to mail the information to whoever you want and/or mail a reply to the person submitting and it stores the data in a MySQL database so you can manage the data on the web, editing, deleting, printing snd exporting it top an Excel spreadsheet.
