Users input into a Dynamic text box?

[pond scraper]

If you use Dynamic text box's in a form looking for a users input of
information -- desiring to capture that information and then emailing this
information to a particular email address;
Do you need to use a scripting language like ASP, PHP... or are there
behaviors or options inside of Dreamweaver to accomplish this without using a
scripting language?
I would appreciate you input as to the best method to accomplish the above.
Thank You

Hey,

Hope this helps. You need several things to happen when capturing user info.
You need a storage location, the fom (your Dynamic Text Box), and a way to post
the information in to the storage location. The storage can be a SQL database
or a simple text file. The text file is less expensive due to the incresed cost
of a database service. The text file is less secure but also offers multiple
tools for viewing the info. (XL, Access, NotePad, WordPad, Word, etc..)

Create the form that you need and then make the decission on the storage and
then step 3 decide on how you want to post the infomation to the database
wheter it's a text file ro SQL service.

Personally I would use a flat file for any info that is not crital or
sensative and a MySQL database (because I own the servers) when capturing any
info about people. I would also want this on a secure URL (https).

tomc-440music,
Thank you for the information. Do you need to use a scripting language to munipulate the data or does DW have the options to move and munipulate the data?
