Submit buttons
I want to make it possible for people to send info to me through my site. What happens to the data when a visitor hits "submit"?

In HTML, nothing happpens! HTML is for displaying information, text, pictures, etc. It doesn't really do anything. So when you need something to happen, like taking the information in a form and mailing it to you, you need something like Perl, PHP or ASP to handle the actual work. Do you have PHP, ASP or cgi-bin access available?
