Hallo,

I was trying to make a form for the Internal web, where the user can fill out the form, send it, refresh it and print it. The problem is that the Internal web isn't kept in the web server, it is just a partial drive from the hard disk.

What scripting should I use?

Thanks in advance.

Are there any obvious choices from the type of server?

Do you mean by this that the URLs are file:// URIs on a shared drive rather than http:// URIs, and there is no web server involved? If so, You're stuck with client-side scripting. Javascript is about the only option in my mind. VBscript if you want to lock people in to using IE. (And I would reccomend against that. Do you really want to make it harder to change if you ever decide to?)
