I am creating a system for a company that has many field workers who need to fill out many certificates for each job they assign. We do this using a tablet PC running mysql / php / apache, which synchronizes with the main server.
These certificates are changing a lot - so I get new versions all the time. And if I do this in the traditional database / php / html setup - I would permanently change the projects and databases, not to mention the processing of changes in the design of certificates and data. (add, delete fields)
I am looking for a way that I can easily create a form and save its design and data in one line (in two fields) - in my mysql database. So, while reading a specific line, I always have the correct design that matches its data, I can combine. This can be done using xforms - but the browser needs a plugin for this. Xforms is tiring.
This is fairly easy to do with text fields only, but I need checkboxes, lists, etc ...
Any brainstorming is appreciated.
