Hi,
I need a script that uses a database or cookies to remember details submitted in a form so that when the user returns they would not need to submit the details again.
It is basically for an order form which will be used by the user a lot, and with many fields to fill in.
I think the best idea would be to have a login function so the data can be stored and obtained from a database.
Does anybody know where I can gain such a script for free?
It can be Perl, Python, PHP or ASP.
I can also use MySQL or MS Access databases.
Regards,
Robert KerryI can't give you the code but perhaps point you in the correct direction?
When the form is submitted it will need to send a cookie to the users computer with the details.
The page with the form will therefore need to read this and add the default values to the fields.
Look it up in ASP, I believe it's fairly simple (Never done it, but read over examples)
Sorry I can't help you any more.
