    You will need some PHP as a backend to send the email. Try posting in the PHP Programming section?

    <input type="reset" value="Clear" /> is the code for your reset button

    To send the email you need some server side code such as .Net (or if you must PHP) that collects the form data and sends it as an email.

    Which won't do a damn bit of good if the person using the form disables JavaScript in their browser or is using a browser which doesn't support it.

    On average, the only thing you should ever use JavaScript for when it comes to forms is to pre-validate form input data or to enhance the user experience of the form by making it easier to present or interact with the form controls or content already hard-coded into the HTML (which should be visible when scripting is disabled or not supported).
