Does anyone know if its possible to update an item on a web page by using a form. Lets say I have a web page that has several different headings with a paragraph of text under each heading. I would like the owner of each heading to be able to open a form, change the text in the paragraph and have that update that item of the web page when its posted.
I hope this makes sense.
Thanks

Yes, i have a MySQL database installed and am using IIS as my web server.

Ok, i'm new at this so I will try to figure it out. I have examples of a form to update a database with, but am a little confused on how the same form can lookup the data and update it on the same form. Its a how-to book so it doesn't go into great detail.
post the form code so i can see it. and maybe develop some code for you.
Thank you, i'll have to wait until Monday, i left the book at work :(
