Submit Generated E-mail response

I am a web design teacher but have a limited knowledge of javascript. I have a javascript based multiple choice test I would like my students to be able to take on line with a submit button at the bottom of the test. When the submit button is clicked, I would like to have the results of their selections to be sent automatically to my e-mail address. I know that is possible but what should I put in the script to make that happen? My submit button script look like this: <input type=”submit” value=”Submit” action=”/cgi-bin/FormMail.pl”>
I would appreciate any advice or feedback. Thank you.

@DaveSWMar 26.2003 — This is the basic way to make the form e-mail to you.

<FORM METHOD="POST" ACTION=mailto:___@________.com” ID="myform" enctype="text/plain">

</FORM>

Here's another thread where a php server side code is used. E-mailing forms using the above is slightly dodgy because some service providers apparently don't support it.

Thank you for the input. I'm brand new to this list so forgive me if I am not doing all this according to protocol. I will work with what you've given me and see if I can get it all to work.
