    Coffeecup should work, you might have to upload some code and paste some code - have not used it in awhile and just saw that they improved it.

    If you want an awesome form builder I'll let you in on one of my (formerly) secret weapons - www.formspring.com --- awesome form builder --- I haven't used it with XWD yet but have with Serif WPX2 and several CMS platforms and it works great. Has conditional logic built in, even has security options and Paypal integration...there are a few others --- zoho.com has one now along with really nice versions of every sort of web based (saas) tool from CRM to invoicing - but of them all, Formspring has been my favorite (and no, I do not work for them). I'll give Coffeecup a shot just to see if it works and will do the same with Formspring and Zoho...

    btw, another killer product that is very low cost --- www.editgrid.com --- spreadsheet and data tool --- but you can push live data through web pages and such.

    Yep, I use use Coffeecup form builder too. Very easy and quick. Downside, it uses Flash. Upside, it's a one-off purchase.

    Formspring looks good, but expensive.

    I agree, Formspring looks good but is quite expensive. You probably get what you pay for, but I'm looking for a less costly application. I also like coffecups one-off purchase price so they are at the top of my list so far.

    Coffeecup works OK.... http://www.bostoninternet.co.uk/index.htm

    It's also easy to match the size of the form to that of the placeholder.

    You get see the specs here: http://www.coffeecup.com/form-builder/

    Woody,
    Thank you for the link to the site designed with Web Designer that has the Coffeecup form. I like how it sizes to fit the placeholder. Looks very professional on the page. I've downloaded the trial version so I'll be testing it sooon.

    Hey Guys - great discussion. I just bought the Coffee Cup form software and tried to insert the flash code into an html placeholder on my WD7 index page. The insert never completes. Any idea about what might be wrong? The dot web file is attached.

    Aamir - Just because you use large text does not make your question any more important or guaranty that anybody will help you.

    What is the code generated by CoffeeCup form builder and where do they say the code goes (HEAD? BODY? Both?)

    CoffeeCup has a support page and maybe you should ask them how to add it to Xara http://www.coffeecup.com/help/
