Hi, I have a question in relation to submitting the forms. Is it possible to create a button (javascript) which can send a completed form to a file-sharing website such as box? I have tried with URL, however, the end user requires to have an account with the Box. the only way I was able to get it work was using the emailto: option.

The URL you submit to, whether it's from an HTML web page or a PDF file, isn't a folder or file on a server; it isn't like saving. You submit to a web script, created by an experienced web programmer, running on a web server. This handles the input and does what is needed (e.g. saving. emailing, putting in a database). "Submitting" by email is so unreliable as to be useless.
