Web Form Demonstration

 

This page links to pages used to collect data from a form, put the collected data in a database and retrieve data from the database and put it in a table.

The form used to collect data is a regular HTML page, but the processes used to process the data via the database require the ability to run work on the hosting server using PHP code. PHP code will not run on a computer that is not set up as a server.

Therefore the HTML page that contains the form will hand off the collected data to the PHP scripts that are on the server. The PHP code used to make the process work is included in the file so that you can look at it. If you modify the code the ONLY way to test the changes is to upload the modified code to your personal file on the server.

Please also be aware that the data from all students resides in the same data table, but is distinguished by the student's initials. It is therfore essential that
a) the statement on line 26 of fillform.html has the "Value" parameter set to your initials (in capital letters)
and
b) the hyperlink to call for the data table retrieval has the extension "?uid=XYZ" where XYZ are your initials, again in capital letters .
