form records to SQL database

[Guest]

Dear friends,
I have a free webhosting account and there I have an SQL database, my
hosting account doesn't support other databases and it also doesn't support
asp pages. I am creating my website in Frontpage 2002 and there is a feedback
form, when the visitors enter something in that form, I want the results to
go to my SQL Database.

How can I achieve this?

Hope you will help!!!!!!

Ask your host what is supported - PHP, ASP, ASP.NET, Perl/CGI etc.

Then you will have to write your own PHP scripts to interact with the
database.
It sounds like the database may be mySQL, not MS SQL.

See http://www.w3schools.com for PHP tutorials.
Also Google for PHP database scripts.

Can you please tell me which scripting language among these is much easier?

 

[Ronx]

It's not a question of what is easier, it is what does your host
support.
I use "classic" asp with Access databases on a Windows server and find
that much easier than PHP and MySQL - but I have always used Windows
servers and never needed PHP.

If you are willing to change the server platform and learn a little, I
suggest you move to a Windows server and use asp.NET, with MS SQL
server.
