Need SharePoint users to fill out form (or a table that can be populated) on our home page

I need a fillable form (or a table that can be populated) on our SharePoint homepage. I need users to either fill in and submit answers via email; or they can fill in the information and it remains displayed on the page.
- I've exhausted the InfoPath (2010) route, as it appears that my co. administrators have blocked that feature (or at least removed the ability to load brower-enabled forms).
- I found html code for a form that I can place in the Content Editor, but the information disappears when I navigate off the page.
Do you know a clever work-around to this issue? My version of SharePoint is "Windows SharePoint Services 3.0" on Windows XP. (I do not have SharePoint Designer.)
Thank you.

Sorry, yes, you mentioned, I read that too swiftly.
Have you tried a list that has a datasheet view as its default? This ensures everyone can just enter a new entry as a row
Or, you could use a page capture web part on the submission form for that list / table

Wednesday, March 07, 2012 5:30 PMSteven, the datasheet view worked well for my needs. THANK YOU! I've also added it in page viewer on the home page. Question: Is there any way to have just the datasheet display - without the Quick Launch, page title, and breadcrumb info displaying?
