I am a Java programmer but my boss doesn't care so he assigned me this project. So I'm seeking out help to the PHP or Javascript developers.
We have data coming in from domain servers that test everything, wiring, heat, etc. All of this is scripted through Regina Rexx to a static table. I want to collect that data without rewriting all the Rexx programming.
Since it's doing it's job, I thought the easy way to do this would be to grab the data from this file which outputs to an html file. I cannot send this link but it comes out just like an ordinary html file with a table.
I want to put this info into a database mysql, PHP, on an Apache server.
So specificly: Static table to a mysql database.
Can someone point me in the direction or give me a pointer on this transition. My department are all hardware engineers, and I'm the closest thing to a PHP programmer but I haven't touched a database in 10 years. Yet it's like riding a bike.
