I've written a webpage (HTML & PHP) where a user can fill in various data into a form (using text-inputs and checkboxes). This data should be added to an already existing .docx template (MS Office Word).
Now I chose PHP because I thought PHPWord would offer the solution to all my needs... but it failed me, and I am not clever enough to adapt to the code make it work somehow. So I looked for another Library that could actually insert tables and images in .docx Templates and found DocX (http://docx.codeplex.com/). But this Library is design for .NET. Now I'm hoping DocX will offer the solution I need or my boss will hang me for wasting time.
So on to the question: I somehow need to port the data gathered in the webpage from PHP to C#. But I'm not entirely sure how one should go about doing this...
I thought maybe I could transform the data into JSON or XML and somehow read that into my C# program. But I don't understand how to "pass on the data"... do I write to a file and read that file every 5 seconds? Do I create some kind of socket/listener on a certain port? Can I somehow trigger an event in C#? My programming knowlegde is lacking...
Could someone please push me in the right direction?
