one button for submitting information and linking to another page

The correct way to do a form validation is NOT to have it applied to a
submit button, but to apply it to the <form> tag with the 'onsubmit' event
as a trigger. Sounds like you are not doing this - am I correct?

The correct way to a) validate first, and b) send to a subsequent page,
would be to use a server-side script for the validation, and when if that
validation succeeds, it would then formulate and send your email, after
which it would redirect you to a confirming page. Javascript (client side)
validation can be useful, but is not sufficient in any situation where you
are then sending emails or entering data into a database.
