Changing position of submitted guestbook data and clearing contents of a guestbook page?

I am putting together a local restaurant website and have been trying
to figure out if there was a way to adapt a guestbook form in a way
that that restaurant owner can go to a password protected guestbook
style submission form and submit his daily specials to a designated
page on the site whenever he wanted to. While I know how to create a
guestbook, there are two additional things that would be needed in
order for me to adapt a guestbook for this purpose. The first would be
the ability for the owner to clear the entire page of all previous
entries. Something simple like a button in the submission form that he
can click to dump any previous guestbook data prior to entering his
new data. The other is a way to change the layout of the submitted
data. Guestbooks seem to only be able to display data in list form. I
want to be able to display each entry horizontally.

Basically like want it to look like this:
Super Bacon Cheeseburger $6.99

All Beef Hotdog
$3.99

Rather than this:
Super Bacon Cheeseburger
$6.99

All Beef Hotdog
$3.99

Hope someone can help me with this

Thanks in advance,
Adam

You can do a simple database results wizard to display the data from an
access database (requires a windows server).
In conjunction with the database interface wizard (which allows for basic
password protection for the 'admin', & adding/deleting/amending records).
You can have it so your client/company has access to the 'admin' part and
the users can only read the information displayed.

You can lay out the results in any way you want (in tabular format in a
table for example)

Read up on the DBRW and DBIW in "Help".
