Sorry, in the form the action attribute defines which page the form will be submitted to so just make it a page other than the current one (the same as an href for a link)

<form name="Picks" method="post"
action="http://pub22.bravenet.com/emailfwd/senddata.php">

this is the only thing that contains an url in the form. The rest of the form is text fields. If i change this url then the info wont be processed. Thanks so much for your help

Sorry didn't realise you where using a third party processor for your forms, I guess you're stuck unless bravenet provide a way for you to do what you want (may be a redirection to another page on your site but I have never used them so I wouldn't know).

I can re-direct but it doesn't eliminate the form. I can also not use bravenet. I can't quite use a database yet, im still learning. I would love; however to get rid of a form once it has been filled out. I have a fun website that my buddies and i use. The purpose is to play basketball and I need to know what time to meet them, not all at once but they select a time to let me know when to unlock the gym. But once someone selects one time i would like that time to become unavailble. I thought, to avoid a database (since i don't know enough), that the easiest way is to delete a form once it's submitted. The idea is that i make a form for every time slot. I didn't know it would be so complex. I apologize but it would make my life a lot easier if i could accomplish this task.
