how to construct an online questionary website

I'd like to build a web questionary for my company's internal use, I plan to implement it with PHP+APACHE+MYSQL,  while I have following questions:
1. private IP or public IP, at the beginning I plan to use private IP, but i found some of my colleagues surf internet using wireless network, and they have problems to access the web which i host(i guess although the wireless network are the same IP set, actually they are different two networks,while the common LAN have no problem ), so must i provide a public IP for the web questionary? is there any good way to solve this problem?

2. any sample code package for this kind of application?

I appreciate a lot for the help provided!

"... so must i provide a public IP for the web questionary? is there any good way to solve this problem?"

If you want your application to be reachable from the internet, you need to make it available via a public IP address.  Public IP addresses are only available to the local area network, but not on other networks.

In terms of the questionary, what do you intend to do with the collected data?  Should it be stored in a database? forwarded to someone by email?

hi humeniuk:
 
sorry for posting my email address, thanks for your comment!
i plan to store the data in mysql database and for the result, i haven't decided how to deal with it , maybe email the result to my email box will be the most simple solution, what i want , is just print out the result of the questionary paper.
Hi squirrelsong,

My apologies.  I got distracted and lost track of this one.  I am signing off now, but will return in the morning.

Again, sorry.

thanks humeniuk, your answer is  in very detail and helpful, i will accept it as the answer for this topic, by the way, anybody got an idea about where should i post a question on developing a 'call center' system? i have surf to network section but there are only video conference topic area which is also quite different with what i am looking for.
Happy to be able to help and thanks for the A.

In terms of your 'call center' system, I'm not sure what the best topic area would be.  One option would be to ask for advice in Community Support (http:/Community_Support/).
