[Hidden-tech] hosted web forms

[Frank Aronson (Gmail)]

David -

 

Check out Wufoo <http://wufoo.com/> .  I had very good luck with this with a
client (to see the form, go HERE
<http://www.alliesinrecovery.org/contact.html> ).  Depending on your
client's needs, they may be able to use the free account (the restrictions
and plan comparisons are HERE <http://wufoo.com/signup/> ).

 

Hope this helps.

Subject: [Hidden-tech] hosted web forms

 

I have a friend who needs some forms on his web site. For a variety of
reasons (a long story that I will not go into), the forms need to be hosted
on a different web server than his main web site. He asked me if I knew of a
service that allows one to create and host forms to which he would provide
links on his site. Ideally, all of the responses could be downloaded in a
spreadsheet.

 

I tried doing this for him quickly using my Survey Monkey account. The
problem I ran into was that if I pasted a multi-paragraph block of text into
one of the fields, Survey Monkey "mashed" it into one paragraph in the
output. Line breaks were ignored. That won't work as he needs people to
submit several short essays, each of which could contain a few thousand
characters and therefore multiple paragraphs.

 

He is hoping to find a service with a reasonably straightforward user
interface so he can add and edit forms as his project evolves. He is not
looking for someone to build the forms for him. He wants to be able to do it
himself.

 

If you can recommend a web form hosting service, please let me know and I
will pass the name along to my friend.

 

Thanks,

 

David
