Actually, that would be ok up to a point.  It would be much better (since
we have php / mysql installed) to have it pulled from a database (much like
the General Education Online v2 page at http://wsdo.sao.uwf.edu/~geodev/ ),
and the online form automatically stores the info in a temp table for
review by the person responsible.

This allows the pages to latter be set up as separate pages--just by
modifying the sql code a little bit--rather than having to re-write a program.
