First I would like to say thank you to anyone who may be able to help me with this problem. I have spent the last two solid days trying to figure it out. OK, here goes:

I have an XML document, have used an xsl stylesheet to convert it into html form. On this form there is information about a company, then a place for the user to input a small piece of information (a credit limit). I have also included a (semi)working "submit" button.

What I need to happen is: when the user clicks on submit, the inputed credit limit is written back into the original xml form (along with all of the other previously included information; ie, company name, address, etc). My server will not work with asp (found this out after my first day of working on this). My choices are to use: java applet, javascript, cgi. Unfortunately, I have not been able to find the information I need to even determine which would be best!

Any help, or anyone pointing me in the right direction (ie internet example or a book) would be incredibly helpful. Thank you! --Jennifer
