Marlene, I hope to write clear things in order to help you. I and my team have made one applicatione of date entry with Apache and PHP using rows XML in order to record the infomazioni or for having the coordinates in order to construct the form dynamically.
The thing that has complicated us the life in developing the application has been the controls on the fields. PHP works on the serve (server site) and therefore the controls on the single fields before the post cannot be made on the client. Moreover could not be made of the post of form because the thing would be with little entusiasmanti performances and also from a little useful ergonomic point of view for the final utilizzatore. Moral of the history we have been unfortunately forced to integrate much code PHP with Javascript in order to execute controls side client before the post of the form. This not it is a PHP limit. Perhaps our application did not have to be made with Apache and PHP but with other technologies where lagestione of the events turns out better. They are not sure that these centers with what you have in mind to make; I want to only suggest that if before making a post and you must make of the controls and to manage events with PHP this could be little complicated. Ciao Franco.
