This is what is happening. I submit. And everything is still functional in the email copy and everything in my form becomes disabled and buttons are hidden. I want everything to remain constant on my form and everything disabled sent out. Any other suggestions?

You need to:

1. Disable all fields

2. Submit the form

3. Enable all fields

This all needs to be done using a script, so the order of these steps can be controlled.
