1: I need the form to be emailed to me. Right now when you hit submit on the form it just opens an email window. It has been a while since I encoded this stuff so I can't remember how to fix that.
2: I would like to integrate paypal into the site so that they can have the option of paying with a check to us or immediately with paypal. We already have a merchant account. I just need to know if anyone has done this before. We are looking at allowing them to select one ad option and/or one sponsorship option but no more than that.
Here is the site

You'll need a PHP or similar script that does this for you. HTML is not, as far as I'm aware, capable of anything like this.

If your host has PHP support you can try http://boaddrink.com/. If not theres bound to be something it does support like ASP or Perl. You can find scripts for just about any language.
If you don't have a way of running server side scripts on your host you can always use a third party form processor. One free one I know of is at http://www.response-o-matic.com/
I do have some experience using PHP to integrate credit card authorization, but most authorization services Ive used have had an easy way of integrating themselves into your site with no programming required. Im not familiar with Paypal but I would assume theyve got something like that.
