Simple form, need some guidance

[mlamb2005]

Hi all,

I'm looking for some guidance on a simple form I'm building. I've done mostly ASP.NET development so far and have never gotten heavy into the HTML side of things.

I'm making a "QuoteBook" which consists of three input fields (the quote, who said it, a description) and one button (to activate the submit event) at the top of the page. Underneath that would be a table which shows all the past entries (pulled from a data file).

A few caveats: the server this will live on doesn't deal with dynamic content with the exception of Javascript. I also don't have access to a database of any kind, so the previous quotes will need to be written to a file.

My two main questions:

1) What is the best method to store the quotes? I was thinking an XML file but would a delimited text file be better?

2) I'm not really clear on the interactive between the Submit button and what happens next, as far as grabbing the text in the input fields and then putting that into the text file.

Thanks in advance for any assistance!

You'll need some kind of server technology. Javascript can't write to files (except cookies).
