I would like to some how have the information that is entered and then when click on submit i would like it to be able to go to another screen with the results of what was entered and have two additional buttons to download resutls and then an option to start new entry, I am not to sure if I will need to create a sql database for this to happen or if its even phesable.

QuickOldCar Posted December 28, 2014 Share Posted December 28, 2014 (edited) You can install an amp stack and have a local server running for development or can even set it live. xxampp (windows,linux,mac os) wamp (windows) lamp (linux) each distro has own install methods mamp (mac os) Is some other versions but are a pain to install, no longer supported or solaris,ibm Once you have something can work with stop back and ask particular questions, lots here are willing to help. Take a look at php.net for some additional info, tutorials, example codes Notepad plus is a nice editor with highlighting Edited December 28, 2014 by QuickOldCar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QuickOldCar Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 The form needs a lot more work. The next step would be checking POST values, right now default is GET because the method is not set in the form. Next can insert them into a database I was making a lot of fixes but got called into work today. Do some reading on PDO and prepared statements, is what we will be using Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
