I'm wokring on a form design to post caller information to a local database so the head moderator/operator can route the calls coming into to our inbound call support center. I have the design, i just need a simple script to post the data generated to a html page that the head mod can copy and send off in a flash. I thought about the email option but that will take to long, it would then be just as fast for him to just use the paper trail style data entry. The copy paste method would be faster... But what im posting is to find out if there is a simpler script I can use to post to a html page or maybe a php page, but this will all then be xfered to a intraserver (company server) pls help if you know a simple script i will also want to password protect the info but nothing higher than 128 bit as the info is within a secured local server, i cant take care of the password part just need the scipt to post to a html page.


thanks

You can post many different types of information via a form.
If you type the info into a textarea of HTML, you are better off just posting using regular <form> method.

If you are truly assured your content will be well-formed, you could do a type of AJAX approach and post up the content with XMLHTTPRequest, but that doesn't prove to benefit you much here, seeing how the "serverside" component is where the bulk of your translation would be.

If XML format is truly required, the AJAX approach could eleviate some overhead of validating that your content is "well-formed" before getting to the server.
