Hey folks I realize this forum is more for people who have a basic knowledge of SQL...but if anyone can help I've got a task I'm trying to complete for a friend's webpage. I'm trying to figure out how to build a basic feedback form fer his students to be able to post on his page what they thought about his class and what they would suggest to make his class better...kinda like a guest book in a sense. No need for login information or anything of that nature, just a simple "put your name here, put your feedback here" kinda deal. I greatly appreciate any help anyone can toss my way. Thanks in advance!

SQL is not a programming language in which you can build an application. You'd be better off asking for help in a forum that deals directly with the programming language that you have chosen to write the application in.

If you need the form to email direct ,then you won't require a database , all you need is the web page and some sort of server side component/script that will process the form and send out

Not looking for a direct email form... Looking for when someone enters the information and hits submit, it shows up on the webpage directly thereafter.

If you want it to be stored and then available to a web page - you will need to store it (either a database or text file) and then have a script called by the presentation page which will retrieve the values from either your db or text page

So you don't HAVE to use a database to do this? You can make a dynamic page save something to a text file and have a php page recall the text file I assume?

Correct, you can definately do this with asp - using the filesystem object - which could do the writing and reading
