So many ways to do this but you can try this in JS fiddle and it works for
me (https://jsfiddle.net/k6mcvj3j/). You can then use the custom form
explained in web2py book and insert them in the database
<form name="contactform" class="contactform" method="post"
onsubmit="return validateForm()" action="your_action">
<label>Sender Email:</label>
<input type="text" id="semail" name="semail" />
<label>Recipient Email:</label>
<input type="text" id="remail" name="remail" value="" />
<label for="Subject">Subject:</label>
<input type="text" name="Subject" id="Subject" />
<label for="Attachment">Attachment:</label>
<input type="file" name="attach1" id="attach1" />
<label for="Message">Message:</label><br />
<textarea name="Message" rows="20" cols="20"
id="Message"></textarea>
<div class="submit-btn">
<input type="submit"/>
</div>
</form>
<style>
.contactform
{
font-family: Verdana, Arial, sans-serif;
width:550px;
}
.contactform label
{
float: left;
text-align: right;
margin-right: 15px;
width: 200px;
padding-top: 5px;
}
.contactform input{
width:300px;
padding: 5px;
font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;
margin: 0px 0px 10px 0px;
border: 2px solid #ccc;
}
.contactform textarea {
vertical-align: bottom;
width: 310px;
height:150px;
color: #777;
}
.submit-btn input
{
width:50px;
float: left;
text-align: right;
margin-left: 480px;
padding-top: 5px;
}
</style>
