Saving Data from Air for Android App to A server

Question

Hi,I developed a flash-card-like app. Users can review key terms and can take quizzes to assess how they do on these quizzes. The scores they get on these quizzes are currently saved to a sharedObject. One way users can send me back this info is by a mailto function where the info is sent to me via email. How can I have these scores sent from the app to a server that I can specify? I have no knowledge of serve side scripting. Ideally, I would like to create a button in the app that syncs the data to the server! It seems to be a simple straightforward thing, but I am lost. Any help would be appreciated. Everything I coded works fine. Data is saved to the sharedObject, I can trace that it is saved. I just want the functionality to be able to send the data via a server with a click of a button. Should I have used a remoteSharedObject? I dont know how to integrate them in a way to have this data emailed to the server. Any help would be appreciated.I expect to release the app to both Android and iOS.Thank you for any suggestions or advice

The apps can send data the same way a regular html form does so you need to build a regular website to handle the data. You need php or .net to handle your data (the same way a normal website does). Php can store the data in a mysql database. Php can also get the data back out of your database for the app or send emails or whatever. The php code/pages, mysql database setup and coding should be very cheap to buy from a php contractor. Everything you need to do is very very common so you can buy it from the cheapest online contractor. PHP mysql hosting is very cheap too.
