I'm currently creating a page where people can plan a trip. Based on dates they can choose for a location. I want to show all these decisions in some kind of log file :

LOGFILE:

1 - June 17 - Fly to Amsterdam
2 - June 18 - Train to Brussels
etc.

Everytime a button is clicked some text need to be added to this logfile.

Anyone knows how to do this?

Ask on the server-side forum.

goose is right. You need to use some server-side language for writing data in database or a file. Additionally, you can search from the Internet complete scripts about Log filing etc.

I'll move this thread to server-side forum. There are qualified members to assist you further.

First question - other tahn 'who is going to delete the other
thread?' - what server side languages does your host support?

I can use PERL if I want, or even better if I know how to do it . :)

Time for me to learn... any ideas or links ?

Well there are many books really good ones, evrybody has its favorites, i like the sams, "learn perl in 21 dasy"

plus there are other books out ther, and lots of online tutorias but i dont have any of them right now, ill look for them,

i think that at the perl/cgi forum there is a thread with some of them.
