Using online forms to create XML files

[alanimal]

Hey there,

Can someone please help me?

I have a web page which has a form that asks the following:

Please enter Machine Number:_________________________
Please enter date to action:________________________
Please enter your name:___________________________
Please enter your contact number:____________________________
{Submit}

How can I collect the data that they have entered, and convert it into an XML file, which will be stored on a folder in my server and emailed to me?

Any code you can offer would be great!

Thanks in advance
Alanimal

You will need to use server side code to manage this, unless you use something like Ajax and a webservice - even then you will need someway to process that recieved data - either way it will depend on the server you use and what technologies you feel most comfortable with.

If using a ms based server I would suggest c# / .net if you have visual studio or asp if you dont.

If other os server then php or perl scripts etc etc.

When you have decided whioch server you are using, try posting in the relative forum.
