Hi, I'm trying to set up a website where people can share details about their servers.

I want to be able to set up a few input boxes so they can put in things such as Their server names and I.P. Address and maybe a description, I have MySQL it would be great if somebody could offer me some guidance

I would also like whatever they share to go to another page so anybody can see it?

Thanks,

Joe.

The server-side program that processes the form data needs to save it somewhere (e.g., in a MySQL database) on the server. Then, instead of a plain HTML document, the list needs to be generated by another server-side program, and that program needs to read the saved data and then send the appropriate HTML to the browser.
