cooldude832 Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Thats a poor idea to save each form entry as its own flat file (html/pdf) instead look into mysql/flat file databasing and then producing a report of all results or what results you need off your database.

rameshfaj Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Use the static forms for the interface to collect the data(for this use HTML). Collect the entered data via POST or GET method and store it in the database for future use and effiecient storage and manipulation. Why to go for PDF and all?
