Does anyone know where I can find a form creation script that will allow me to:
1) Create a custom form with many options.
2) Submit the information to a database.
3) Be able to pull the information from the database and sort the information based on the form options.
Basically to put it in more sense. I will create a form that has 3 options. Option 1 is name, option 2 is state, option 3 is town. A person will submit that information, it will go into the database. Then there is page you can go to where it will have a listing of the state, you will click that, it will have the listing of the town, you click that and it has the persons name. (basic concept)
Ideas?

Make it yourself. You'll need PHP or similar, and MySQL to run the database (or similar), now just make your form as normal html but either have the action go to another path or back to itself where the data is validated and if correct placed into database ...
If you don't have any server side experience and/or don't want any, try hotscripts.com
<?bhb if(broken){ echo("It wasn't me
"); } ?>

Yea, I don't know too much about the coding myself and being able to pull it from the database seems a bit too hard for me. I was checking out hotscripts and is this sort of what I am looking for:

If so, does anyone have some expierence with one particular application that they could recommend?

Well I dont think this one will do all that you need right out of the box, but with a little tweaking I know it can do it.

Ok, works good so far. I am able to post a form to a database. So now, how would I pull that information out of the database to display it in HTML?
