Trying to get a form to email results-feeling like an idiot!

I only know the point/click method, no languages or code. I have a form I'm trying to get to email its contents to me. I'm using Dreamweaver 8 and hosting w/GoDaddy. Dreamweaver 8 says it has no such feature, but GoDaddy offered some code I copied/pasted. I have an email address on file with them, but the form results don't show up in it. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

If it's ASP, then the best thing you can do is to get the email portion working first, and then add the form elements in after.

See here for just the email portion:

Ultimately, though, your problem is that you're going to have to learn how to hand-code something like this. In other words, get your hands dirty and learn a programming language.

DW8 is your first problem -- like Adam said, learn hand-coding as you're going to have to do it eventually anyway; but for the interim, you can implement this copy/paste email code

She said she doesn't know languages or code; sending her to a site where she needs to download a zip / tar file will definitely confuse and frustrate her.
