Default ** Making a contact form ACTUALLY send a message to my EMAIL **

After someone submits a message on the contact form, How do make the message go to my email?I am extremely new to this and how the process works. If someone could help me out with this, I would GREATLY appreciate it.

Here is what I have so far(the contact form comes up when you click GMAIL):
http://www.brysonprice.com/contactrealfreshgmail.html

Just in case any of these factors could change any answers that might be given, I still plan on doing these things to this page:
-Adding LightBox2 so that the contact form pops out on the same page instead of redirecting
-In the future (after I launch my site), I might change the actual contact form, although, it will still have the same fields (NAME, EMAIL, MESSAGE).

thanks

In a tutorial, I saw them do this:

HTML Code:
    <script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1/jquery.min.js">
If I put this in the head, will it work? They said this way, you always get the latest version of jQuery. What would you recommend?

You are getting a script error when the page loads

Webpage error details
Message: 'JFormer' is undefined
Line: 91
Char: 33
Code: 0

That may help explain why it's not working

you can even style it with css
Thanks for the suggestion, but I like the form I have already better because it's a little fancier. I just need to know to set up a PHP document so that the message will actually send to my email.
