Formoid is a free desktop app that helps you easily create html5 form validation, javascript form validation, html email form, html contact form and more in a few seconds without writing a single line of code. Create nice online forms in just a few clicks.
Q: This is a beta test, I understand – but seems like it doesn't really accomplish anything but creating the <keyw id=0/> skeletin – there are no options (that I saw ) to create required fields – and I didn't see any way of sending the formatted data to an administrator (as a real form needs to do).
I can accomplish all of these same things you offer right in Dreamweaver very easily
(but would still need a programmer to implement the “back-end” formatting and delivery of the form data ) – not sure of the benefit of this html form validation product?
Thanks – for the most part it was very intuitive, I would need something a little more robust...
A: There are 3 methods to use Formoid:
1) Use "Preview and test" button. You form will be saved and processed on our server.
Backend on formoid.com will make validation of submitted information and send it at email
address that you specified in application. Your form will be saved into our database and
you'll able to see it using "My forms" button in application window.
You can add the form to your page in the following ways:
* Copy the link from the browser's address field and add it to button/menu item on your
webpage.
* Copy the link from the browser's address field and use it with iframe.
* Copy the link from the browser's address field and use it with tag.
2) Use your own server and our server-side PHP code (backend). You form will be saved and
processed on your server in this case. Our backend make validation of submitted
information and send it at email address that you specified in application.
To add the form to your page you should:
a) Upload files generated with Formoid app. on your php server.
b) Use link to .php file (generated with Formoid) as link to your form.
Notice that if you want to use this method, your server should support PHP.
3) If you server doesn't support PHP, you can use Formoid app. to design the form
appearance only. You should write server-side script by yourself.
Use generated .html file in this case.
