sequential numbering of html forms

Hi, heres my question:
I need to find a way of sequentially numbering an html form that is used to request technical support by our users here. It doesnt need to be anything special at all, it just needs to tack a number onto the email it sends me. I have been looking for a while and have found absolutely nothing, short of third party programs designed for oracle and access, etc. BTW, these fools that I work for only have front page 98 for me to work with, though I'm tempted to drag in my dreamweaver. Please keep in mind that I know very little programming, and am mainly a hardware geek.
Can anyone point me towards a link or give me the low-down on how to accomplish the numbering? Thanks!

 
I'm in no way any expert in this field, but I think the only way to accomplish this is with server-side scripting. The possibilities are numerous - ASP, PHP, Perl, JSP... If your technical support page doesn't get a lot of hits, you could possibly try PHP. It's easy to learn and it's free. Plus you could probably just modify an existing script, there's a lot of resources to be found on the net.
