Bob is right, relying on client side mailto: will play havoc with differentbrowsers, use CDONTS in ASP or CFMAIL in Coldfusion. Hopefully someone at
your end will know something about using these.

Don't rely on client side mailto: Submit your form to a server side process
to do the email and then redirect from the server.

For on thing you are sending the visitor to a new page in your onsubmit
function therefore the form never gets submitted.
