Wildcard or variable to name results file

[Joe Gazda]

Does anyone know if it is possible to use a "wildcard" or "variable" to
create the file name for the results of a form. In my case, I would like the
user to enter a company name as part of the form entry and then use that
company name to store the results of the form on the server. It would be
something like Company ABC, with the results stored in ABC.TXT or ABC.CSV.
Then, if XYZ Company filled out the form, the results would be stored in
XYZ.TXT or XYZ.CSV.

The server has FrontPage Extensions installed, as well as CGI, PHP, and
MySQL.

Thanks for any help with this.

You can use PHP to build such a solution.

Re: Wildcard or variable to name results fileCan you suggest any web sites where I can find programming information? I have downloaded a tried to read the PHP manual, but I need a little more detailed explanation and examples for setting variables and using them to name a file.

Thanks,
