Umm... you'd have to learn PHP for that, with a MySQL database.
If you just want to make a forum that will ask the user for data, consult this reference:

Although you might want to read the whole guide.
As for displaying data that other users entered, you CAN use XML, but i'm really not sure how to append to an XML file (nor whether it's possible without good knowledge of XML).
PHP/MySQL is a much better choice though, I could give you the code if you want, but first, it's better if you get an understanding of how PHP works and experiment with it a bit...
Use www.php.net for reference.
thanks a lot. just so u know, if my 1st post wasn't all that clea, i am trying to make a website where people can go on, be prompted to enter their Name, Email, Phone #, yada yada, and then linked to the site where all the entered names and info get displayed in a list. i'll check it out
I think you should be able to do all that in asp but I'm not sure it would be secure. Is it on your own computer or remote hosted?
that would be very easy to do with perl
http://www.cgi101.com/
that has a nice guide to show you how to do what you want.
you will need to have a host that has mod perl installed though. ;)
it might be hosted on my computer or remote hosted, most likely, mineQuote:
