Hi all, I'm hoping someone can help me. I want to create an application on my website whereby once a user has filled in a form they can review their answers/input and print them. I am comfortably familiar with xhtml and css. Can anyone tell me what else I'd have to learn in order to create this type of interactive form? Any suggestions/info are welcome :) (Also I'd like to have some control over how the output is presented to the user-- which I'm assuming would involve some complicated server side programing? As you can probably tell, I have alot to learn on this subject!)Thanks!

I would suggest a little bit of php might be in order. As a tool to manipulate the Form Data and validate the replies, you know, like confirming their email address is the correct structure, the number fields are numeric and there is no attempt to insert html that might break the layout, or worse. It isn't tough to learn.As for controlling the printed output, check out the use of media=print stylesheets.
