i hope i can explain this clearly enough (i am not very good at jargon -
correct terms - etc) hell im not even sure if i am in the right group...
anyway here we go

im trying to build a page where the user can enter some details in a form
and (on clicking submit/publish/etc) it is uploaded to a database and the
words entered can then be seen via another page (like a blog) all well and
good i can do that

but,
i also would like a 'save' button which would save the entry for later
updating/publishing - and i am stuck as to how to make this button do
this...

I am unsure what you mean exactly by "save" here. The entered "words" can
be saved into a database (above) via the submit/publish/etc already.

i dont know if what i am asking for is simple or difficult and was hoping
that somone could point me to some sort of tutorial, ive tried searching
but
am unsure of what search terms i should actually be inputting in order to
get an answer

sorry to bother you folk with this but i am an old man (45 ha) in my final
year at university and all our php lecturers have left (taken early
redundancy) so im stuck with no-one to ask.

thank you


Perhaps you could tell us whether you wish to save to the client machine, or
at the server end.
And, what is different about what you want to save with the "save" button as
opposed to the "submit/publish/etc" button.
That information could elicit a much more authoritive response.
