Thread: Question..

Okay, so this may not be related to bluevoda.. but I have a question.. Doing a course on webdesign and for some reason, I just cannot answer this question. Its about forms.. okay.. so working in dreamweaver.. but figured its really a universal question..

This is the question:

What are the two types of information processing that are employed in the use of forms and scripts

This is the clue i was given.. lol:

There are two things or two elements to feedback form activation. One Local, one Remote

Any help will be ace
Thanks

hmmm, I think George might be the best one to answer this...

But my guess (and it is purely a guess) is the receiving of the data and the sending of it? I dunno...

Ahhh no idea lol.. just want to get this bloody done with lol.
Thanks for the help!

LOL, well definitely don't submit my answer then!

Doh! lol. So close...... yet so far.... lol

One is a Form Handler: IE: A script to HANDLE THE FORM or as in the tutorials before we had the wizard.. action.php,

Action php resided on your server(local)
The form wizard handles the script elsewhere, you just refer to it (remote)

Second is the action that it performs: email or database, which is remote, in my opinion

Karen

Teri,

I have spoken with George, and he believes that because there could be several answers to this question (it's open to debate on what exactly it is asking) that it more than likely makes reference to something that you should have been taught during the course.

So the answer to your question is... that it's unanswerable by anyone not having gone through whatever you have been taught I'm afraid.

Thanks for the help Karen. The penny still hasnt dropped yet. So not sure if thats what im looking for.

Marincky - Thank you too. We basically went through how to create a contact form in dreamweaver. Thats really all I know lol. This last question is all I need to answer to finish the course.. well.. then comes the actual building of the site but yeah. ahhhh gr. no problem. Thank you all for the help and fast response! Appreciate that!

Just make sure when you DO find out the answer you come back and tell us!!!

lol I will. Just going to give up and resend it lol. Thanks again

It is probable that the answers is: encoding (local) and submitting (remote).
However, it clearly makes reference to something that is containd in your course book (text)

Thank you for the help. submitted something now so just waiting for results.

Thanks everyone
