Question

Creating a form for offline

Been searching for years for a developer who can assist with a unique situation where we require an html application to submit form data in a remote location where web access is not possible. Any suggestions would be welcomed. We have the pages set up and the form ready to go but are unsure as to how to go about sending the data to either a temporary mail message or an excel spreadsheet. It seems so simple but we are having a heck of a time trying to figure this out.

How are you transporting the form without web access? Are you networked but
have e-mail only, or does someone have to sneaker-net this on removable
media to a networked computer? Where is the form being submitted to?

This shouldn't be too hard to solve if you can answer these questions.

Basically this is the scoop. We gather form information in remote regions that do not have internet access.
The form is on a laptop that has complete internet capabilities but at the time the form is being used it has no access to the internet. So, basically the internet access is temporary. We are totally flexible as to how the form info is gathered. Ultimately each entry will be appended to a larger excel spreadsheet (or equivalent). Any ideas?
