Funnily enough one of the parents has just completed her training and is now working in the school, I'm sure she must be in her 40s.

OK. For downloadable forms, you'd need to save the form (in Word or as a PDF maybe) on your webserver somewhere and link to it on the site. If you saved them in the root folder, you'd have a URL that would be something like http://www.thesitename/myform.doc and when someone clicked on it, it would ask if they wanted to save or open the file.

As for a forum, yes, there are any number of places you can that from, including the one we use for the Potting Shed, which is pretty good.

I've never used Frontpage or Dreamweaver - like I said, all our work is database driven and written in SQL and ASP. I like them too - they appeal to my tidy gene Laughing

Thanks Jellycat, it's easier than I thought then.
I've downloaded the trial version of that calendar and got that uploaded to the website with dates so they can decide whether to purchase or not. Smile

I liked SQL but as I said, things just went back to front with me and I couldn't understand the logic of it. What seemed perfectly straight forward to me just didn't work. One of the guys had to really work hard to help me with this while I typed up essays for him, a LOT of bartering went on! Laughing
