    just have a script that saves the form content to a text file. You;ll need to make sure your host is set up to allow files to be created in the directory you want to save to though.

    Best bet would be to have a database and save the data there and do exports from it you need a file

    Yes you can use some thing like PHP and a MySQL database to store this.
    If you do choose a text file make sure that you cahnge the permissions so it is writtable
    There are tutorials on the net for this kinda thing.
