I had trouble the other day. Ran a survey which generated about 700
responses an hour. It ran fine, then about 90 minutes in everything slowed
up. The hosting service suspended our domain claiming our survey was
overload the server. We had run the survey previously using PERL as the
scripting
Here's an example of code:
I have multiple page form. When the submit of each page is clicked it calls
a php script that then opens the dbase, checks if the user has already
replied to the page (for those who use the back arrow of the browser),
writes the data, and then calls the next page.
Thanks for the comments,. I'm putting some code here to hopefully get an
idea of what is considered inefficient when dealing with mysql. I'm confused
because all I'm doing is collecting the data from a form and writing it to
the db. I have about 30 pages in the survey, so a script similar to this
