Sorry to say, but that's not how it works. I wish it did to. What you need to do is a <form method=post> It does just what it says; it takes the information and posts it to the script you are using.

For Example.

I use CGI/ASP, it's nice it simple, it's fully customizable. so my code reads a little like this:

<form action="http://www.yoursite.com/cgi-bin/yourcgifile.asp" method="post" name="Join Now" id="Join Now">

You would need to have a server that offers you a CGI bin if you are a first time user. It's not hard, just take the time to get into and really teach yourself the in's and out's of how these scripts work.

I started with a cgi-bin in my hosting package that I had no clue what it was for , then I "SAVED AND EXTRA COPY" to play with and started messing with all the coding until I deconstructed the whole thing, now I fly through forms like its no big deal.

Good Luck
