    Default A really easy form.

    http://formoid.com/

    This form creation product is being developed but you can download it and take it for a spin and provide your feedback to the developers.

    It is one of the simplest and intuitive form utilities I have used.

    Default Re: A really easy form.

    The easy part is creating the form. But getting the form into a Xara HTML document is not working for me.

    On the formoid.com website, it says to copy the BODY portion of the index.html file that formoid creates and paste it into the BODY section of your HTML document but as you can see in the attached, something is not working.

    I have sent this image to support and we'll see what they have to offer.

    Obviously not taking the styles with it. I will try this out tomorrow and see if I have any luck, could be better than jotform's 100 submissions.

    I think that there is an additional folder created when you save as HTML and this folder needs to be included in the root director.

    I did not notice this before.

    Yes, there is a folder created called Forms.html and this needs to be in the root directory.

    Formoid is about as straightforward as I have seen.

    Here's a link to a form I created with Formoid http://www.gwpriester.com/test-form/

    To add the form to your Xara webpage, you need to first use the Save as HTML feature in Formoid. This creates an HTML document and an additional folder.

    The body portion of the HTML document needs to be added via a placeholder in WD or DP, and then the folder created by Formoid needs to be in your published root directory (you can preview this by publishing to a New Folder on your desktop.

    Are there supposed to be titles to the form fields Gary?
    EDIT: Whoops there weren't any titles first time I viewed your form. They're there now.

    What browser were you using?

    The form was created for a Psychic's website

    FF Gary. It only happened on one view, after that there was no problem.

    Right tried it out and very simple to create forms. Only downside for me is the customisation is limited. for instance to create a form with fields side by side does not seem possible. Unless you have had a play about Gary and can enlighten us.

    I should mention that the look of the button etc can be modified by editing the formoid-default.css file.
