Hey Everyone! Basically i want to make a form like this one:

http://directwebremoting.org/dwr-demo/people/index.html

and I want to put it on a website that I'm hosting. I have 5 workers that will have the link to edit the table, but since that table is made with javascript, is there any way to have the edited text saved for all 5 members?

lets say I add/edit stuff on the table, I want to press save, and I want another member to view the website with my edited stuff. Does that make sense?

I'm new to all of this. so any help is greatly appreciated.

edit:

this is what i want to achieve:

but i want the data to come from the server and save on there

Perhaps you already realize this, but your example is on a site devoted to Java programming and to a particular Java library. If your question is, Can I develop a similar behavior with PHP, the answer is probably Yes, but it wouldn't be a simple task, and if you are new to "all this", I'd say it would be a significant challenge for you.
