Posting form data to an Oracle database

I want to create a form, and then insert that data into an Oracle database. I am new to JavaScript. I can create a form, but I have no idea how to connect to my Oracle database and pass the form contents to an INSERT statement. Does anyone have a sample script that does something similar?

You will need a server side programming language to accept the form posted data.
PHP is great for this purpose and has built in routines to connect to many different databases.

if you POST the data [<form method=POST>] then PHP can get the data by:
$_POST['form_item'] [<input type=text name=form_item>]

depending on which lanugage you want to use for the server, i would suggest finding a website from google that specializes on that language.
