Hi Godiva, I appreciate all the great comments/suggestions from everyone. I probably could have worded my initial email a little better. Thank you to Tedd as well.

Christopher, Maybe Tedd was a little curt, but the language you used just made it seem like you had not done enough HTML work to really be able to sort out the difference between HTML problems (missing pieces in your understanding), and PHP problems. HTML forms are totally independent of what you DO with the data that gets submitted when the user clicks the form's submit button. HTML lets you lay out the form to look however you want.. (you can use HTML's <table...>...</table> to achieve the visual layout you want). PHP is needed to HANDLE the data (receive it from the submitting form and save it to a db). When you say, "You will see that the forms are in a matrix format", and, "...[you] are not sure how to set-up a similar matrix..." it sounds like an HTML problem. If you do need help with HTML layout, then practice, Google, and consulting an HTML list will be your best bet. Now, if you need help with writing the PHP that handles the data, then great! This is the right place to ask! But we need to see code you attempted, in order to know your level of understanding, and so be able to guide better. > I will follow your suggestion and submit my work. -Govinda This message is for the designated recipient only and may contain privileged, proprietary, or otherwise private information.
