So I'm not really sure how to ask this...but I'm making a website in which you would be able to click one of six weather icons leading you to a page that will allow you to enter your name and a story relating to the weather and post it on a final page with other peoples stories about the same type of weather. I have a table set up to save the name and story, but I'm not sure how to save the weather when a user click on one of the icons.
My teacher was saying to do something with javascript and making a hidden form or something. Heres the link to the site if that would help. http://www.tcnjart.com/christineaustin/whethertheweather/index.html
