Hi:
One solution for emailing HTML forms is to use Java Mail. For this two jar files are required - one named mail.jar from java mail and another named activation.jar from Java Activation Framework(JAF). These two can be downloaded from
http://java.sun.com/products/javamail/index.html . More information can be obtained by following FAQ link of this page.
After proper installtion, you can display the html form using JSP and use Java Bean to extract the form fields. Then you may write another JSP for sending the mail. This JSP should ideally be doing the following:
1) Get the values of the form fields using the same Java Bean (discussed above)
2) Create a new session for sending mail
3) Create a new message and set the values for relevant fields such as To, From etc., and format the message body using the setText method.
4) Send the message
Many links to articles on using Java Mail are available on the same url given in first paragraph.
Hope this is helpful.
