 Posted: Wed Jul 26, 2006 4:39 pm Post subject: How to create a user form? |
 |
|
Hello,
Has anyone out here successfully created an electronic form that may be
emailed to multiple recipients?
I've posted a more detailed request in newsgroups that I thought might
include more enlightened members, but nobody has responded.
I need to include fields such as Name, Address, Phone Number, etc. Icing on
the cake would be if I could find a freeware application, though that's not
an absolute necessity.
Any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Well
An electronic form that can be emailed to multiple recipients...
Anything can be emailed to multiple recipients.
Are you looking for a Word document?
Adobe .pdf format?
html?
other?
please be a bit more specific.

Thank you for responding! Preferably, a .pdf or html form. This is not my
area of expertise, my apologies if I've been vague. I've done a little bit
of general research, but don't know the best way to begin.
Thank you, again.

Not really mine either.
I think you need to define what the end goal is, when you know
that, then someone can advise you better how to get there.

You'd need to generate a form in HTML and then have some kind of CGI
script that does the e-mailing (generally something like Perl, PHP, or
ASP). Of course, your webhost would have to support these programming
languages.
If not, you'd probably to have to find a 3rd party company that lets you
use their server for web forms. |

This is how I do something similar:
Create a html form on a website you host, email the link to this form to
everyone on your email list. I use php to retrieve the form information
to my email address when person clicks submit. Many web hosting
services have add on scripts that make this pretty easy to do.
my example

Thanks to all who have responded, I've looked into your suggestions, maybe
the NEXT time my boss puts me up to something that I don't know how to
actually do, I might be able to pull this one off...
But I'm not a programmer, maybe someday I'll know the basics, but for now,
she'll have to find someone else to do this or ask me to run the copy
machine and then lick the envelopes.
Thank you, again, sincerely,
