Answer 3

setup post route in your express to recieve and save the data.
in the html create a form with action directing into that route you just created.

in node
app.post('/theRoute',(request, response)=>{
//process and save the data hete
})

in html
<form action='http://urlhere/theRoute' method='post'>

there's some other basic step like body-parser, not sure if i can put it all here.
Gordon do you have good resource explaining this topic ?
