1) How important is putting anything in the design Classes, ID boxes and how do I know what to put in these boxes?
2) I assume that I start with a FORM CONTAINER, Once I insert Input boxes then I have Classes, ID, Name, Title, Pattern, Form and I'm not sure how to fill these out as well.
I want to be sure that once I've added all the input boxes that I need that it will simply process and e-mail everything correctly. I'm also concerned that not filling out these boxes above will create some problem and Google LAUGHING at the structure of my code and down grade the site or something.
Can anyone advice whether or not there is a step by step pdf somewhere which outlines all the aspects of setting up a form. Something that might explain also the options under Enctypes. Because I'm needing to have so many input boxes, pull downs and text box, would I set it for Multipart Form Data??
Thanks in advance
Best Regards

Hey John
You should take a look at Web Form Builder. It will do all that for you. Once your form is built, follow these steps to add it to your page:

The form elements in RSD are placeholders, so if you want to make them functional, you need to write some custom code to process the form. If you don't know how to do that, Form Builder would be the best and fastest way to go.

Hello Scott,
Thanks but if you don't mind, I have a few more questions.
One I already have an html form and a php script which can process the input from all the fields. Are you saying that because Responsive Site Designers only allows for place holders that I'm required to purchase yet another software in order to create a form in Responsive Site Designer? I can't just create in the form container, put input boxes in and show where the path to the php script is for processing and publish the page into HTML and it will function then as HTML just as the HTML page I currently have in place where the form and script are working just fine?
Sorry but this learning curve and software purchases is just a bit overwhelming to say the least. :-(
Oh and my current form doesn't require it be pulled up from exterior files and loaded into an Iframe, what's up with that??
Thanks for your help.
Best Regards

If you already have a form page you can probably just insert an html element in your responsive page and paste the code between
<form></form>
from your old form
