Building A Form With FormBuilder

1.  The Start Page is where the FormBuilder System collects your Form's basic information, Browser Title, the name you will use to track the form, a password for this form, a Header, and the selection of what you want to do with the form (see options below).
2.  Your e-mail address is needed to be able to deliver the form, css, and javascript library to. It is also needed to Log In and find all the forms you are currently working on.
3.  In the top menu, you can also set your form Defaults.
4.  When finished with your field selections and options, click "Start Form".
5.  You will then be brought to the Main Menu screen to build & add your fields. Each time you click "Add Entry" the data for that field will be added to the system and you will be returned to the Main Menu screen to add more fields, edit the form (which takes you to a list of fields), Preview your form, Deliver the form, or Quit.
6.  At anytime you can click the Preview tab to preview your form. You can also review our Examples & Tips at any time.
7.  At anytime you can scroll to the bottom of the screen and click Reset to start your field entry over (Cautionary Note: ALL fields will be reset, even ones on panels that you can't see).
8.  To have your form and other files delivered to you, select under "Form - Deliver form" option and the system will build your form and zip all files together and send as an attachment to the e-mail address you entered when starting the form.
9.  You may return and "Log In" to the system, entering your e-mail address, the system will lookup all available forms still active and tell you how many days you have left to complete work on them. You may return as much as you like within 45 days to get another copy of your form without additional charge.
10. After 45 days, your form will be archived and available for a nomimal fee.
11. During the building of your form, you can change the Defaults at any time. All the fields you create AFTER changing the Defaults will use the NEW settings.

Quick Overview

FormBuilder will help you create a fully operational, web enabled HTML form without writing any code. You can even include javascript functions with a single click of your mouse! You will build your form online interactively with We Do That Technologies' servers, adding your questions one at a time and previewing the results as you go. There is no limit to the number or type of questions your form may include.

When you are finished building your form, the entire supporting code will be sent to you. Your form will contain only non-proprietary code that complies with current XHTML, CSS and JAVASCRIPT standards, thus allowing you to do any last minute "tweaking" before uploading the form to your host server.
(FormBuilder built forms DO NOT contain any proprietary code)

Since current browser versions do not yet fully support these W3C standards, our forms are tested to produce consistent and reliable results in Internet Explorer 5.5 or greater, by far the most widely used browsers today.

A Brief Word About Appearance . . .

The 3 major elements of good HTML form design are content, layout, and appearance. FormBuilder handles the content part completely for you and includes basic layout and appearance defaults to present a professional total product. Since layout and appearance are very subjective and your form contains only standards-compliant code, you will be able to edit these settings as much as you like later.
