Hi guys, want to make an app where a user has to input information. Kind of like a book the needs to be completed. Example, I need pages where one has to complete the filed name, age, whatever... And also be able to somehow backup and or export the info. What kind os pages should I use, any ideas? Thanks.

This can be done with HTML and a connectionto a server just as it would be done on a website. Now getting it to work offline is something I haven't worked out. Fred

Fred, I have been playing with php. Webview does run php forms. I'm also working on an experiment, php guestbook that writes the form data to a flat file (text file) rather than a database. Now, if the php will run in webview it can be entered in Custom HTML. The part I am trying to figure is how to get the form to save (or append) to a text file that is in BT_docs folder instead of on a online server. I do have it working online, there has got to be a way to save to an offline text file. What are everyones thoughts?

Interesting. Over the past few weeks I've written some HTML, Javascript, JSON docs that I write to from, alert from. That's easy. Been studying MySQL to figure out how to post to a database. It seems as if you create the database and put it in the Assets > BT_Docs folder then it should be the same process as a web site. Yesterday I created my first .php file on a device. The php.org website was yesterdays homework. Please send me your code and I believe we can solve this. Fred

You're correct about the BT_Docs folder. Here's what I wrote in my Source Code (Android) article: assets (folder): You can use it to store raw asset files. Files that you save here are compiled into an.apk file as-is, and the original filename is preserved. You can navigate this directory in the same way as a typical file system using URIs and read files as a stream of bytes using the theAssetManager. For example, this is a good location for textures and game data. Android doesn't require any files in this directory. The assets folder holds three folders (BT_Audio, BT_Docs, BT_Video) and one file (BT_config.txt).

Thanks guys. I'll try it.
