Just need a little help with logic so I can concentrate my research into a solution/script better... I need to create a simple web form which when submitted will display the data the user entered (for print purposes). No databases. I'd like to possibly email the user the data they entered too.
I've done this before with PHP using GET instead of POST, by pulling the data from the URL but I understand that GET is rather limited (as well as being insecure) and this form will have large pieces of text.
And is it possible to do this using one page (without having to use a separate processing page to feed the data back after submition for displaying, I managed to do this when using a database).
If PHP requires a MySQL database, what other scripting language would be best for this?
I greatly appreciate any advice.
