it depends what you are trying to do exactly\nif you have data from a DB that you are displaying you can write VB script into the page, to direct the information to the where ever you need it to go.\n\nbut if you have a website that you are visiting, and you want to basically take information from them because thay are a newsite, or they have information that changes periodically, it would be best if you learned a different language. such as PERL, and then you can GREP the information from that site. but this can lead to errors. if you are more specific with what you are trying to do in your question then the answer can be easier to find. always have some type of example.

For HTML forms to function, they require a server-side programming language, such as ASP or PHP (I personally recommend PHP, cos I use it). You need to learn either of these languages (like PHP) first, before moving on to inserting the collected data into database and retrieveing it from the database.

learn the technologies needed in the career field.  There are many parts / technoligies involved.  You could set up a basic website without having to have much knowledge just by knowing how to use an editor or even a word processer. To make a page useful, however you will have to know scripting, database connectivity, cgi programming, good site design strategies, etc.  Like anything in the world, you could get as deep into it as you want to.

In my opinion, look upto MySQL, it is the best database for your needs. Incase you have queries regarding its setup, you can lookup to the following professional forums where people discuss such problems :\n\n(1) http://forums.mysql.com/\n(2) http://forums.devshed.com/forumdisplay.php?forumid=4\n(3) http://www.ahfb2000.com/webmaster_help_desk/archive/index.php/f-47.html

You didn't mentioned, which web server and progamming platform you are using. There are lots of way to connect form with databases, depending on platform we need to use coding. Mostly used combination \n1. ASP or ASP.net + MS SQL or Ms Access database\n2. PHP + MySql\n3. Java Servlet + with a database\n4. ColdFusion etc

Queries can be a very complex things, involving one or more tables of the data-base.\n\nBut any example is specific to the DataBase structure you have. You can read a lot about SQL queries in the "mysql" (http://www.mysql.com/) documentation.

In case you wanted to run more than one database for your site.\n\nEg. a database of customers/clients, and a database of your products/services, and still another for your staff to log-in, and yet another for your suppliers...

You need some kind of server programming technology like ASP, ASP .NET,  JSP, ColdFusion, PHP, ...etc.  All these technologies will allow you interact with the database.  Does your school already have a web hosting plan that is hosting its web site?  If so, check with your web hosting service provider and see which technology they support.  If not, since I am a certified ColdFusion developer, I suggest that you go with GoDaddy.com, crystaltech.com, and hostmysite.com.  Crystal Tech offers a 50% discount if you can show that you are a non-profit organization.  For more details, please go to their web site.  \n\nWith these technologies mentioned above, you can create forms that interact with the database.  Some suggested that you can have the form contents emailed to you; yes, it is do-able but it is done manually by you.  If there were just one or two requests, you may be able to handle them on your own.  But when every student in the school submit their own requests, you would not be able to enter all those details on your own.  So, if you can get the forms to interact with a database backend, the process is instantaneous/real-time.  You can create a lot of powerful and dynamic web applications.  Please feel free to contact me if you want more information.

Alot depends on *how* you need it to work and how the site is structured. More information would be needed to give a better answer... however :)\n\nYou can simply make a flat file to store information say keywords/short desc with a map to a file/link and search that file  (a simple 'flat file' database in other words) however this would then be using html files, php files and a 'text' file\n\nThe other way is to simply use PHP to open any HTML files and scan it for keyword matches. User searches for 'lovable dogs' and you open a list of HTML files one by one either hard coded or every HTML file in a directory and search their contents for the keywords... that can be done simply with HTML and PHP only\n\nI preffer to have a some kind of index... as opening all the files one by one will be a little slower and also some files might be locked (being uploaded via FTP at that point in time) so really its up to you i guess :)\n\nIf you need code simply look up your favourite PHP reference for file manipulation commands they are easy to use\n\nEDIT:\n\nThen you will have to go with the searching of all the files solution\n\n\nGet list of files and loop\n--->open file and retrieve contents\n--->search contents for the keywords and if found record HTML file link .... say in an array\nend loop\n\nloop through array of results and format as result set to user\n\npretty simple... remember multiple users will access the search at the same time potentially so only open the file for shared access reading

A database is a collection of information similar to a filing cabinet on the computer. \n\nYou come up with questions and then answers.\n\nThink about the Powerpuff Girls.\n\nWhat are the names of the Powerpuff Girls?\nButtercup\nBubbles\nBlossom\n\nWhat color of dress does each wear?\ngreen\nblue\npink\n\nWhat hair style does each have?\nshort\npig tails\npony tail\n\nWhat color of hair?\nblack \nblonde\nred\n\nThen if you have  a question, you can have the computer search for you. Yes this database was so small, you could just look at the paper, but if you had lots of questions and lots of answers--you would need the computer help.

for me HTML is only the basic structure of www. If you want to work with databases(if you want to have an on-line shop,you need a database to store customers info, book info and other info), you can use PHP. But if you want to add dynamically effects you can use Java Script, but ther are more languages for web development, here i say only a path. You can find more info at:\n\nSignature:\nI don't know but i want to know, i know but i want to know more

Well your question is not clear.But if you wanna know what a database system is ...\nA database keeps all possible information in the form of records that are normally maintained in the form of tables.\nThere are some really advance techniques of handling these databases using Oracle or SQL server or DB2 etc.\nIf you want to do some basic operations you'll have to learn the language called SQL(Structured Query Language) which is language for the manipulation of databases.\nThese systems are normally the backend support for systems whose front ends are visible to you in the form various Web Applications,Web services and other Desktop based applications.

Standard Query Language is a datbase. Database is used for storing data. This data is inturn accessed by a front-end tool.

You would have to use a programming language to open the database and access the data enclosed.  Typical languages include ASP, PHP and java.  It depends on what operating system your web server is running and how familiar you are with programming.

If you decide that you need to use an editor then i cant help you, but if you know how to program then use php/mySQL to get the job done, when you use those two in conjunction it can record and display information accurately.
