I'm trying to learn the basics and to do a project. The project requires that I have a web form which allows the user to input their name and such and hit the submit button. Upon hitting the submit button the information is sent to the database. I have a database ready to go, a datalayer but i'm unsure about sending the information. I've been able to view the table through gridview but not much else.

I've been looking for a tutorial to do just what i'm trying to do in my project but haven't got much luck. If i could just get the skinny doing something as simple as inputting a name in a textbox, pressing submit, and the string from the textbox shoing up in the appropriate field in the db table, that would be awesome and I could figure out the rest.

I'm making a survey and I have to be able to allow the surveyee to check more than one option from the multiple choice answer. I've made a single answer multiple choice answer php page behind a database, but I'm not quite sure about the multi choice option.

I'm sure I can make the php part work, but i'm not sure how I'd get both answers in the database in a neat fashion.

Any thoughts?
