Hi all,
I am relatively new to HTML, so be kind. I need to build a website that can
input user data. None of the books I have mention it. Where can I go to get
the necessary info?

What strange books are you consulting? :-)
Look up the use of <form ...> and <input ...>.

Please log in for more thread options Apparently, basic. There is no mention of either. I have a more comprehensive
book at home, I'll look there. Thanks

Please log in for more thread options You'd need to buy space on a suitable server, one with a server-side
scripting language (eg PHP, ASP) which can accept input from Forms in your
HTML pages and store the results in a database (eg MySQL, Access, MSDE). If
you want to go the Microsoft route, try www.asp.net, try "Teach Yourself
ASP.net in 24 hours" (SAMS) and fool around with the free WebMatrix tool
from Microsoft. Caution - this sort of web development is significantly
more "technical" than simply laying out pleasing pages, but it isn't rocket
science either.
