I think this is an IE problem as the html seems okay and if it works in Firefox and chrome its got to be IE. (Stupid Microsoft :) )I would suggest using a send formmail script to send form data to your inbox. It is more secure and allows anyone to send you the information regardless of browser and email program. Not all people have email programs on their computer.They are easy to set up and you can find some good free ones out there.I hope this helps.

You could try it after removing the following from you <HEAD> section

"http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/strict.dtd"

and

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" >

I noticed that after removing this sometimes sorts out a problem. And you might need to play around with that strict.dtd part as well. I had some other problem on a page and after removing the code above, everything worked fine.Just a maybe

The mailto method is unreliable, and most users don't like it anyway, because they do not know how to configure their systems to use it.I suggest learning enough of a server language to take advantage of mail scripts. They are easy to use and easy to find for almost every server language I can think of, including PHP, Perl, and the ASP languages.FWIW, removing a strict doctype is a terrible solution to any problem. The benefits of a strict doctype far outweigh the problems, which can usually be solved by better solutions.
