Had a simple form script that suddenly stopped working

It was made about a year ago and had been working fine. Last time it was known to work for sure was in early October. I got a message from someone saying they didn't think it work and I tried it through both Firefox and IE and it didn't work.
What it does do right now is load up fine but when you fill out the form and hit submit it just clears the form. Since it's having the same issue on two different browsers I'm wondering if maybe my host (yahoo) did something or if it's some universal browser change. Any help would be great because I don't see anything wrong with it but I'm far from an expert. I just need to get it working again.
Also here is the website to where it is if you want to see how it acts.
