HTML forms (format after submit)

I was wondering if anyone can help with the following or point me to a thread /site that does.

I'm pretty new to web design.(only doing our in house site)

Basically- we have online quote submit forms for insurance- which is all well and good they appear in our email after submition like the following

Name - Daniel Norris
Occupation-Layabout
Date_of_Birth - 01/01/1970


etc. etc.

I was wondering if you had any knowledge or ideas to actually format that information coming from the html form.

The end result being that e.g. someone submits quote and the form details would come through to us as a formatted presentation (be it a formatted email or file attachment) that is ready to fax through to insurers for quotation.

So instead of a list of answers we get form with headings & sections with the text boxes completed with the anwsers given.

You can view the fomrs under 'GET A QUOTE' on our website http://www.gothicinsurance.com/

Any ideas much appreciated?

PHP etc can output the info however you want it to or write it to a file. Server side is nice.
