Liferay中的HTML表单

Question

I have made a simple HTML form in Liferay. When the form is submitted, its content should go to my email address and a line saying 'thank you' is to be displayed. I have done the action part with php. But after submitting, all I get is the 'thank you' part and the form doesn't get submitted to my email address.

Any idea why this doesn't work? I am not good with PHP at all. Only the basics.

Is there any other way to do this? e.g with javascript? though that might not be a good option.

I am using Liferay 6.1 and Tomcat 7.

HTML form:

<form name="form" method="post" action="form.php">
<table>
</tr>
<tr>
 <td>
  <label for="first_name">First Name</label>
 </td>
 <td>
  <input  type="text" name="first_name" maxlength="50" size="30">
 </td>
</tr>

<tr>
 <td>
  <label for="last_name">Last Name</label>
 </td>
 <td>
  <input  type="text" name="last_name" maxlength="50" size="30">
 </td>
</tr>
</table>
</form>

PHP:

<?php
if(isset($_POST['email'])) {

    // Email where form is sent:
    $email_to = "[e-mail]";


Thank you!

<?php
}
die();
?>

Finally got the answer with JSP, which I haven't used since school days. Here is the code in case someone wanted to try it.

<%@ page import="sun.net.smtp.SmtpClient, java.io.*, javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse, javax.servlet.jsp.PageContext,java.util.*" %>
<%
 String from= request.getParameter("from");
 String to= request.getParameter("to");

 try{
     SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient("smtp.mysitedomain.com");
     client.from(from);
     client.to(to);
     PrintStream message = client.startMessage();
     message.println("From: " + from);
     message.println("To: " + to);
     message.println();
     Enumeration paramNames = request.getParameterNames();
     while(paramNames.hasMoreElements()) {
       String paramName = (String) paramNames.nextElement();
       String paramValue = request.getParameter(paramName);
       message.println(paramName + ":" + paramValue);
      }
     client.closeServer();
  }
  catch (IOException e){    
     System.out.println("ERROR IN DELIVERING THE FORM:"+e);
  }
 response.sendRedirect("thanks.htm");
%>
