I hope you aren't on any time crunches because what you want to do is not simple, not really.
You need to post the form information to a php or cgi page which will then do data validation and strip out anything that might be harmful to the database or the system. You then need to store the information into the database and finally return the user to the page they posted from. Those of us who do it day in and day out can do it in our sleep, so we often forget that actually doing it for the first time is rather difficult and can be complicated. I would suggest forgetting the prototype part for now and concentrate on getting the form posted normally, saved to the database safely and displayed safely before trying to get fancy AJAX integration going on. but thats just my two cents On Sun, Jan 27, 2008 at 1:04 PM, atisz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Hi guys, > > > I'm working on a web site and I have to make possible for users to > post comments about the photos from the photo gallery.
