I am using "Send Email from a Static HTML Form using Google Apps Mail" on my static site. But when I submit a form i have to refresh the whole page to submit another mail. If I don't reload the page success text don't vanish and send button don't work. So i am asking is there any way to refresh my form section without refreshing the whole page? please help me how to do it.

If the form is refreshing the page, you'll need to use preventDefault
to cancel its default behaviour then use reset()
to reset the form.
const form = document.querySelector('form');
form.addEventListener('submit', e => {
e.preventDefault();
[...form.elements].forEach(input => console.log(`${input.name}: ${input.value}`)); // Not Important
form.reset();
});
<form method="POST">
<input type="text" name="name" placeholder="name">
<input type="password" name="password" placeholder="password">
<button type="submit">Submit</button>
</form>

The first thing that comes to mind it's do all this on js
so you can through ajax
request send what you want. But I think it's not what you're looking for. You can't send data from page without refreshing, that's how it's work, php
or html
with some functional. You can change ...
<button type="button" class="btn btn-success w-100">Send Message</button>
... and collect all data by JavaScript and send it through ajax.

In JavaScript there is a function for forms which will reset the form clearing all the data in it, ready for another submit. This can be accomplished by running a JavaScript function on submit. This requires a couple changes in your code.
Firstly, we need to change this:
<button type="submit" class="btn btn-success w-100 submit">Send Message</button>
to this:
<button type="button" onclick="submitForm1()" class="btn btn-success w-100 submit">Send Message</button>
Once done, we can add some JavaScript to your page. If you have a JavaScript file linked to the page already, you can just add this code to that.
function submitForm1() {
let form = document.getElementsByClassName("gform");
form.submit();
form.reset();
}
You can also use document.getElementById("[id]");
and add an ID to your form. This is also preferable.
