I recently got a Chinese Water Dragon from a family who couldn't take care of it anymore. In order to track what I do to take care of it, my gf provided me with some log sheets to fill out, which contain information like if it ate the food that was offered, if droppings were found in the tank, as well as small custom notes like changing certain things.
I realized that this data could be used in a simple page that has radio buttons, text boxes, etc and when you hit submit, an html page would be generated and saved using the date as the filename, with the appropriate data fields filled out.
I just started learning CGI in Internet class, but we haven't learned how to code these yet and I'm not sure it would work. What would you guys use to accomplish this? I also thought of PHP, but again, I'm not sure if it would work for this particular task.
Thanks,
Apu
PS: I also thought of using a database and PHP to do it, but that's far too advanced, so I'm leaving that for the future, once I have the more basic versino up and running.
