how to write form data from one page to another

    Greetings, hope you can help with a simple solution to this problem.
    I simply want to write form data from one page 'contact02.html' to another, guestlist02.html'. My hosting site is using windows shared hosting and allows only asp or asp.net scripts, and I know my pages will need to be named contact02.asp or aspx, and guestlist02.asp or aspx. I have found literally dozens of free scripts, but the more I try, the more confused I become. I will copy the present code for the pages here:

    contact02.html
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
    <html>
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
    <title>Contact02</title>
    </head>

    <body>
    <table border="1" width="90%" align="center">
    <tr>
    <td width="34%">&nbsp;</td>
    <td width="32%">
    </td>
    <td width="34%" align="center"><h4>Sign my Guest Book & add Comments</h4><br>
    <form action="" enctype="" target="_blank"> Name&nbsp;
     	<input type="text" name="name" value=""><br>
    <br>E-Mail&nbsp;<input type="text" name="email" value="">
    <br><br>Comments<br>
    <textarea name="comments" rows="6" cols="33">~under construction~</textarea><br>
    <input type="submit" value="Submit">
    <br><input type="reset" value="reset"></form>
    Code (markup):
    </td>
    </tr>
    </table>
    </body>
    </html>

    guestlist02.html
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
    <html>
    <head>
    <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
    <title>Guestlist02</title>
    </head>

    <body>
    <table border="1" width="90%" align="center">
    <tr>
    <td width="30%" valign="top">&nbsp;</td>

    <td width="60%" valign="top">
    Guest Book & Comments
    Code (markup):
    <br><br></td>
    </tr>
    </table>

    </body>
    </html>

    I placed code tags around the form I want to write from and around where I want it written, and copied only the pertinent parts of the html code. If I need to clarify further please ask.
    Any help would be appreciated, thanx in advance

    Contact02.asp has a form that have an action directed to the gestlist.asp

    <FORM NAME="comment-list-Form" ACTION="gestlist.asp" method="POST" >
    <TABLE BOREDER="0">
    <TR><TH>Name</TH><TD><INPUT TYPE="TEXT" name="txtName" SIZE="35%" value=" " ></TD></TR>
    <TR><TH>Mail</TH> <TD><INPUT TYPE="TEXT" name="txtEMail" SIZE="40%" value=" "></TD></TR>
    <TR><TH>Comment</TH><TD><TEXTAREA name="txtComment" rows="5" cols="45" /></TEXTAREA><TD></TR>

    <TR><TD>&nbsp;</TD><TD><INPUT TYPE="SUBMIT" VALUE="Submit"></TD>
    <TD><INPUT TYPE="RESET" name="idReset" VALUE="Reset"></TD>
    </TABLE>
    </FORM>
    -------------------------------
    gestlist.asp
    ................
    .......................
    Dim strName , strEMail, strComment, objRS

    strName = Request.form("txtName")
    strEMail = Request.form("txtEMail")
    strComment = Request.form("txtComment")

    and know , you must have a databse , and a table with minimum 3 field, Name, Email and Comment and
    you save this record on the database , i.e.
    ............
    .............

    objRS.AddNew
    objRS("Name") = strName
    objRS("EMail") = strEMail
    objRS("Comment") = strComment
    objRs.Update

    and save it to the gestbook database, that's all

    use this script

    <form action="guestlist02.html" enctype="" target="_blank"> Name&nbsp;
    <input type="text" name="name" value=""><br>

    and you must know database to show your field record
