Need help with coding

I posted something similar in the PHP forum. But seeing as how I will have to familiarize myself with whatever tool I use, it doesn't matter. As long as I find the right coding, I will make everything else match.
I want to design a site that allows visitors to make selections from daily events. Like a fantasy basketball league would. I must first list the games to be played that day and the times. The visitors would be able to make their picks for the day. Then, in the evening, after the games start, I would want to be able to display those selections. Bear in mind that not every game starts the same time. So if I did a cron job every 10 minutes or so, I would be fine. But my main problem is making available those selections made at those specified times. Not to mention finding perhaps a shortcut to make that data available daily(creating forms, I assume).
I figure I can get the host depending upon what sort of tool I can get to make this work best.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, to say the very least.
Thanks.
John

Have you ever worked with ASP? You can try looking at hotscripts and see if they have what you are looking for. ASP doesn't have a lot of out of the box stuff.
