Oooops (my email is my name and the domain id ipcp.org.br) Also, thinking about the possibilities of forms in this sense and have three thoughts.
Using "silent" forms as a way of tracking participants use of the course program - see separate thread- Silent Forms Using forms activated by bookmarklets - see separate thread - Bookmarklet Forms Continuing the current line of development. I have managed to modify the form in the tiddler so that it shows various cousre options etc.....for now coded it by hand... Modified the outline in the mailtext.php file so that the information is emailed to me in a simple but clear format. I am still hoping that these changes can be made more dynamic...hopefully marks InlineJavaScript example will get me started on that one. And it occurs to me that the mailtext.php script has the data about the courses....and has the ability to send it my email. It should be simple to have aditional script hat formats the data and sends (PUSH ?) it to a html file in "tiddler" format. Probably a in purestore format so that an "administrative" TW can read (<<loadTiddlers..>>) and manipulate the data. Putting the information into DataPlugin format would be difficult as it using " " to separate items and I image that those " " would conflict with the " " in the php output line .....what about slices...should be easy to put the data into slices..........and then I just need the script that send s the data to the html file (which would be a file on the same server - same folder with simple fixed name). I need help on that!!!
