HTML - Simple Web Application For Data Entry And Such
OK, I figure this CANNOT be as difficult as I'm making it.....
I do database design and implementation: RdB, Oracle, SQL Server, even MySQL if I have no choice... But I don't do extensive web pages..... A club to which I belong would like to move an application from Access to the web. I created a MySQL database and now need to create forms that look, feel, work, and have capabilities similar to those currently implemented in Access. Something like: First Name: ________________ Last Name: __________________ Street: _____________________ Street2: ___________________ City: ______________ State: _____ Postal Code: ___________ Email Address: ________________________________________________ I'm finding doing something this trivial amazingly difficult since even VWD attempts to either push everthing into a single column or for side-by-side fields shoves them together. Even if I get things working in VWD it appears to push asp.net and I"m not certain the club's web server even supports this (it doesn't support any Microsoft products as near as I can tell). I've spent days rummaging the Internet looking for "simple html forms" and even "complex html forms" without finding the magic answer to doing simple form formatting... It cannot be this primitive. So, is there a special set of tags or something that I need to do this type of simple formatting? I'm looking for simple web forms attached to a MySQL database to do data entry, searches, editing, and so on. And, of course, this club has no money so buying additional software (and spending the time to master it) probably isn't an option. So how do I do this? Similar TutorialsI've got the general gist down for my data entry, what I would like it to do now when they click Submit, have it save the input text into a field on the .html they are currently on. So they fill the data out click submit, it reloads the page, and it displays the entries they just typed under the actual data form. So if they wanted to add more information again it moves the previous one down further and adds the new entry above the previous entry, but below the data entry fields. If I am not making since just say so. Code: <html> <head> </head> <body> <form action=" HELP HERE " method="post"> <p><label for="firstname">First name: </label> <input id="firstname" type="text"><br> <label for="lastname">Last name: </label> <input id="lastname" type="text"><br> <label for="age">Age: </label> <input id="age" type="text"><br> <label for="sex">Male/Female: </label> <input id="sex" type="text"><br> <label for="email">E-mail: </label> <input id="email" type="text"><br> <input value="Submit" type="submit"> <input value="Clear" input="" type="reset"> </p> </form> </body> </html> This should be so simple task but no. How can I pass input field value to the function? What I read from the input field, as soon as I press the "Save results" the value of the input field should be passed within the function. All I can do is puit 'stuffhere' and it works but simply can not manage to retriveve the input data! <form name="inputData"> <input type="text" name="userName" size="32"/><br /> <a href="#" OnClick="SetText('resultHandler','Username',' stuffhere ');SendMessageToTheObject('resultHandler','saveResult');return true;"><font color="red">[Save result]</font></a> </form> Hi all, Is it possible to make iPod application in HTML/XML. If it is possible then how can I make an iPod application using HTML/XML. With Regards, Can you guys tell me what you consider to be the best best visual HTML programming application(s)? I'm talking about a program that has a GUI (graphical user interface), something similar to MS Word, which you could use to design a web page layout, and when you finish the program will spit out your layout in HTML code. Thanks, any help and advice is appreciated Well, this is the 2nd time I'm having to write this, because the forum logged me out before I could post the last. -sigh- I really need to publish an online application form that job-seeker's can submit to our company website. Problem is, my knowledge of HTML, JAVA, ASP, etc. is VERY limited. I've put together this form from bits of code I pretty much copied from other sources, along with the header and menu designs, logos and links, that are defaults for the whole site. The form LOOKS exactly like it should, and most of the rules for the fields you fill in (dates, names, etc) also seem to be functional. What I really need help with is getting the form to actually WORK. When you hit the submit button, it needs to actually generate all the information inputted into that form into an email that it sends back to me, or something similar. I need to be able to actually GET the info that's inputted into the form. Portions of this code will be VERY sloppy I'm sure. I would DEEPLY appreciate any help getting this page to work. Thanks in advance for anyone kind enough to help. Here's the URL for the page: http://www.sudsmotors.com/templates/employment.html Hi, i am developing an embedded webserver on a microcontroller to perform low level hardware monitoring. My webserver got the GET, HEAD and POST methods. I need to moniotor some inputs of the microcontroller. For now i am using a GET method to every 200ms to check its status and the server retreive the information of the inputs. Thats is consuming too much of my band as i have to constantly poll the line with GET. Is there any possibility to creeat a webpage where a webserver can update some data (without reloading the whole page) when the webserver wants and with no need of some request from the webpage? Inside the microcontroller side this is kind easy to perform with interruputs. But i dont know how to implement that on a WebPage. Thank you Can we port a flex application completely to HTML5? Thanks, Simi. Can anyone please help. I am producing a website for our Golf Society. I have a page for people to enter online. The way I would like it to work is by having a combobox which includes members names and once selected an "Enter Event" button. Once this button is pressed I would like an email to be automatically sent to notify our secretary and a list to be compiled in another area of the site which either gives the members names who have signed up or a rolling total of the number. If this is possible can anyone please tell me how How do I create an entry page that only shows to 1st time visitors, I am creating a forum and would like to have a welcome page that shows when someone 1st visits the site, but after they have entered and registered they no longer see this page if cookies are enabled. Is this possible? I need a way to add a specific term to any search entry made on my site. I've looked into hidden texts, but not sure if that's the way to go. Any insight on how this could be done would be greatly appreciated it! Hi, I am trying to figure out how to restrict users (guests) from browsing straight to a page within my site. I would like to ensure that all users must access the site via www.mysite.com Example: User- browses to www.mysite.com/pages/interestingpage.php (or .htm) I would prefer to force the "User" to click their manually via the links on my main page. I imagine some sort of session would be required for this. However I do not wish to require users to log in. I've heard that .htaccess or Apache's config file can be used but so far I have not been successful. I do have full access to the server/configuration. Hoping someone can assist. Examples would be most ideal. Thanks! Hi everyone, Hoping someone might be able to help me - I'm a Latin teacher, trying to design a website for my students to practise their verb conjugatiosn and noun declensions, so what I'm wondering is how I have, for example, a grid with text boxes for students to write the correct endings in and then a submit button which then checks what the student has written in the box and then maybe a pop up window appears saying "you have got 2 endings wrong, try again" or something like that... any ideas? I got as far as looking at forms but couldn't work out how to adapt them to the purpose I'm looking for. Would be very grateful for some help on this! PinguisIuvenca Hi, I have a simple list of text entry's that all have the same class (sample shown below) presented on a webpage. I am trying to present the top 5 entries first, with a next button to another page showing the next 5 entries. I was wondering if there was an ajax, javascript or other code that could sort this automatically so when I add new entries to the top, the older entries get shuffled down onto the next pages. I have previously been manually moving the entries from page to page when I add a new one, and am looking for a more efficient alternative but without having to use a database either. Thanks for your time and any suggestions would be really appreciated. Code: <div class="archive-title">title 24th Aug</div> <div class="archive-title">title 21st Aug</div> <div class="archive-title">title 16th Aug</div> <div class="archive-title">title 13th Aug</div> <div class="archive-title">title 9th Aug</div> <div class="archive-title">title 2nd Aug</div> <div class="archive-title">title 26th Jul</div> <div class="archive-title">title 10th Jul</div> <div class="archive-title">title 9th Jul</div> <div class="archive-title">title 4th Jul</div> Is there a way to insure that all form fields are reset to empty or default values upon entry to the page that contains the form? I'm asking this because if someone has already submitted a form and arrives at the next screen, that form has already been logged. If they go back, it gets logged again and I don't want that. I would prefer that the solution would involve HTML &/or PHP because many people have Java script disabled. But, if it can't be done with HTML or PHP, then so be it. I'll have to use Javascript. My first thought was to somehow disable the "Back" button but that is probably offensive to many, and I wouldn't want to alienate anyone. Maybe someone on this forum might have the answer to my question or may be able to suggest another approch I could use. Thanking you in advance, Roy Alright, fairly basic question here, but I'm kicking myself over and over trying to figure out some fairly basic code. What I'm doing for a friend is helping code his gaming website so that his in-game buddies can update their stats on his page. I'm just about done with the simple database work, so they can create usernames/passwords etc, but the stats page is a bit of a problem. Basically, I want a form page only accessible once they've logged in, and they can then input their information onto the form, hit "Enter" (or some other button to that effect), and the site will update a different page with all of their stats which were input into the form. No idea where to start. Help if possible, thanks. Hi Experts, I am designing a webpage where based on the year selection the associated years webtable needs to be displayed in the webpage.
