processing forms

[jvanhee6]

Hello,
I'm a beginning web designer, most of the time I work with HTML, DHTML, XHTML,…
I have a few questions, I made an HTML form but when I submit it. It's in the e-mail as an *.ata file now is my question if it's possible to use this file on a different way than in a database because the only thing I need to do with these forms is print the form and save the attachment linked to this form.
If this is not possible how do I start then with making such a database?
Can you please tell me how I can fix this?
Or if you just want to give me some URL's where I can find answers to my questions.

What server side scripting language are you using to process the form? The file extension on the end of the action attribute will tell you this eg action="form2mail.asp", action="mailform.php", or jsp for Java, cfm for coldfusion etc.

Once you work that out you should then post in the appropriate server side forum to ask for help.
