I'm trying to create a database of student scores to manage with dbman.
Currently, I use a quiz-making program, Hot Potatoes, that POSTS student scores (form data) to an email that I receive (as teacher), using FormMail.pl.
What is posted is simple stuff--name, score, start and finish time--in a standard form that FormMail understands.
Is there a modification of FormMail that gives the option of posting that data also to a text file database?
I've tried bnbform and yform, but they do not accept data in the same form that FormMail requires. I can make them work, but they require me to modify the Hot Potatoes code, which is awkward and causes new problems, so I'm hoping to find another CGI form processor.
Thanks,
Gerald
