A client has an Microsoft Access database where they save their products.
To access the database now you have to login via VPN and open Microsoft Office Access.
I need to access this database from a PHP script running on another server.

I've done some research and found that it's not possible to connect to an Access database like a MySQL database.
So what I wonder is if it may be possible to set up an Microsoft SQL Server on the same server that uses the Microsoft Access database. So I can connect to the Microsoft SQL Server with the PHP script. Or if it's possible MySQL.

They are running Microsoft Windows Server 2008 and Microsoft Office Access 2003.


Question: Get value of a form ID python/flask
Answer: You can't. The id value is not part of the form data set sent by the browser.

If you need to identify the field, you'll have to either add the id to the input element name, or if the id is generated by Javascript code, perhaps store the information in an extra hidden field.

Adding the id to the name could be done with a delimiter perhaps:

&lt;input id = "number_one" type="text" name="comment.number_one"&gt;


which would require you to loop over all form keys:

for key is request.form:
    if key.startswith('comment.'):
        id_ = key.partition('.')[-1]
        value = request.form[key]
