I am designing a website for a student group I am affiliated with and
the server doesn't support ASP or CGI_BIN commands. As IE 7, Firefox,
and Netscape no longer support the < ! form action="post" mailto:"
____@__________" !> command I was told to use front page's extensions
for creating a webbot to handle the issue. When I posted the page with
the extensions added, it looks for something called webbot_self. How
do I create the missing piece to finish the page and make it
functional?

so you can see what I am dealing with:
http://myweb.nmu.edu/~prt/P6/Contact.HTML
 
You don't create/write anything.
Right click the form, and select the "send to email" and/or sent to file
options.

Publish the page via http://.

The webbot already exists - it is part of the server extensions.

Does the server have the FP server extensions installed? Either through IIS
(Windows) or the server admin functions in Linux (or whatever).

All you need to do is ensure your server is set up to allow the server
extensions to send the email from the form.
