Why can't form submissions be directed to a static page? It would be nice
to be able to "dummy" a form submission for prototyping or for
presentation purposes.
I'm not the webmaster at AAnet, just a content developer using their ISP services.

You could just set the form method to "GET" - you'll get some cruft in
the URL of the resulting page but it will probably be served.
