Forms to files

[Paluccie]

Ok I know there is a way to do this, I just lost my documentation on how to do it. I'm trying to have a form on my website that when a customer presses the submit form, it submits it to a file. I would like it to submit to a database but not sure if that's possible. The form is only a 1 page form. Any hlep would be appreciated

U got PHP on ur server? use fputs() or fwrite() to write to a file after parsing the form input and making it into readable form. heres and simple example:

$handle = fopen("results.txt", 'a');
fwrite($handle, $somecontent);
fclose($handle);

just append all the text from the form results to the somecontent variable and ur done.

Yeah, what kind of server is it? That would be the best thing to know to start out a plan.

If its Windows, your provider probably offers MS Access support, and you could use that as the Database.

Linus probably has MySQL.
