use mysql & ? for development.

I have been asked to write an application
that runs in the browser. (I am a newbie)
If the internet is connected the application opens a web page for the user to enter data.(that part is fine)
but if browser can not connect to the internet, the application brings up a form (this is all on the users computer without being attached to the internet.) the user enters information such as name address ... and then this data is saved to a mysql database on the local computer. Any suggestions as to where to begin with the develpment of the form such as which script type would best be for this? ....
any help suggestions would be very much apreciated

GP

It sounds like you need a client-side scripting language.
One such language is Javascript.

You can also use a JAVA Applet - runs in the browser (with the plugin) or with an Appletviewer.

You would have to use a Java Applet, I think, because Javascript can't talk to MySQL yet. The Mozilla Organization is working on making this possible. Even then, I'm not 100% sure if you can do it with an applet.
