There are many ways to do this and it's all do-able , just write or rip the code. The best way is to use a database file, either text file, or better yet, SQL.
For persistence between sessions, you'd need to factor in some kind of cookie code or set up a password system to access the database.
Check out online script collections for free PHP or PERL scripts that will do this, google for 'script archives'.
You will need a full-service web server account, which today are cheap and fast.
Dreamhost is a really good webhost among hundreds of providers that can give you a UNIX domained account with PERL, PHP, PYTHON and MYSQL. $10/month will give you the above and 300 mb of space, $20/month will give you more space and shell access.

I currently run 10 sites there.

Is there a way to have a web page either:
(1) save it's self, so it's user editable fields can be read later?; or
(2) have the web page read a text file and populate it's fields. Then save the user editable fields back to the text file?
If either of these options is possible, how would you go about doing it? Or, is there another way to accomplish this task?
Background: my application creates a questioner. That questioner (or text file) is posted to a web site. A user then answers the questions by typing in the form fields. (Note that this could be a work in progress. Meaning that the user could put in some text, then come back the next day and continue editing the fields.) When the user is done, the application would then query the web page (or text file) and compile a report.
Any thoughts?
Thanks! -Dan
