So I've read and learned that there is no way to format your form data.
If this is true I was wonder where I can get a program to change the
format of my POSTDATA?
Just so it's more legible to the people who need to read it.
Thanks in advance.
 
You would have to learn server-side scripting (ASP, PHP, etc.) and write your own form handler.
Which one, depends on what is supported by your web host.

Well any program. I want to install it on my pc that recieves the email.
I want it encrypted till I recieve it and use the program to fix it.
 
You have to format the data from the from prior to it being sent, so that means it must be formatted
on the live/remote server, not after you have received it on your PC. The email also needs to be
encrypted as it is being sent, better and less costly, store the data in a database on the server
via SSL, and the retrieve the data directly on link via SSL (https), then you don't have to worry
about encrypting and decrypting the email.

You would use server-side scripting and a database. The form data would be stored in the database,
not sent by email.

Just make sure is there a way I can write a java program to format
the received data (POSTDATA)?
 
I don't think so, but then I am not a Java programmer, and you are not talking about JavaScript
which is not the same as Java, correct?
