No I don't mean Microsoft Access.
I have to do a project for school, and this is the task.
I have to design a peice of software to present to a software company (teacher). I am doing a peice of software which deals with shares (the ASX, which is the australian stock exchange). The person using it, who I will call Bob, enters any purchases/sales, the price he bought/sold them for, and the amount he bought sold. Bob then can read his overall profit and the shares he still own. Now I have designed a form too enter the sales and purchases and a "Home Page". What I need now, is a way to enter the data into a database, and a way to read it.

Would I be better to use HTML, or another way?

Python is better than PHP! Although PHP is probably easier to set up on your server...

But yeah, PHP should do the trick... It's really easy to learn too :)
