As you'll be retaining new infomation this will take some kind of server side process such a script written in PHP or ASP.

Thanks, but I don't know those languages. Is there a quick and easy code in HTML or Java?

Probably a fairly easy code in Java. I guess you didn't understand why it cannot be done in HTML or Javascript. Client-side languages (HTML, CSS, Javascript) affect the behaviour of browsers. Server-side languages affect the behaviour of servers. If you want to edit a file, maintain a database or send an e-mail then you need a server side language. Which one you use (PHP, ASP, ASP.net, CGI-Perl, JSP, ColdFusion) depends on what your host supports and on any prior experience that you may have in similar languages.
