mailing content in a few text-boxes to a gmail with html

Question

I want to make a simple project with HTML where I put my email address in one textbox and my name in another one. The problem is, I don't know how to do this. Here is my project:

https://codepen.io/dewball777/pen/KGNVyR

<backtext> was just an <h1> with a background and a monospace font

What I want is that the code should send the email to the email address in the email address textbox and the message is their name in the second textbox.

You need create a form with your content.

May be using js to setting mail.

Ex:

<form action="mailto:someone@example.com" method="post" enctype="text/plain"></form>

Click edit on your question, then upload your image using the button that looks like a mountain and a sun. – Jack Bashford Oct 08 '18 at 01:28

May be for this function @AbhiraamEranti `function lol(){ alert("this is the mailing part"); }` – devil8910 Oct 08 '18 at 01:29
@devil8910 the same thing happens for the W3 schools one – Abhiraam Eranti Oct 08 '18 at 01:33
@AbhiraamEranti It is show the mail box. Html just create a form to get information to send email. If you want to send , you need a server side(php java, ..) or try to EmailJS.
