I want to get the values and store it. im creating a visualization web
application for a data collection application which stores the data
directly to the database.
i am doing the application as a honours project, the data collection
application is mostly used in under-served communities, and i want to
provide a free application that allows the admin user to visualize( in the
form of graphs and charts) the data in their forms.
another question, is there an option to create a form that is dynamic? for
example different forms will have different fields.
