I have a few things that i want to do with a form that i created using
infopath.

1. I want to have the form on my website, so people can fill it out.
2. When they hit the submit button i would like the form to be sent to my
email automaticaly.

If anyone could help me with these questions, please reply.

Do you expect people accessing your website to have InfoPath on their desktop? If YES then InfoPath will do the job.

If NO then users will not be able to fill in an InfoPath form.  What you can do though is convert your InfoPath form into an asp.net form - for this you can use a tool like InfoView (www.infoview.net).

So you create your original form in InfoPath and convert it with infoview and post it to your website. People fill in the infoview form (only need a browser for this - no plug-in or anything else on their desktop) and submit - the XML data is routed where you'd like it to be stored. From that database you get an email alert...
