Hi

I have been an avid user of flash Web Form software for the last 4 yrs. I have designed forms as entry forms for special events. As here: http://www.ncfbc.com/ncfbc_specialty/spec_entershow.htm
Of course with the flash software I would have to roll the entrant over to a payments page.

I obviously see the benefit of the new Web Form program in the fact that it will accept entries and payments on one url. In it self, that alone is probably worth the purchase.

After playing with the trial, there are couple things holding me back a bit. With the addition of the ability to do these things, Web Forms could own the events entry form business.

1. I don't see the ability to paste large blocks of text in the plain text area. Many entry forms require large areas of text as in the text block shown above the form on the link above. The ability to format specific words within an HTML text block is need as well.

2. The ability for both the entrant and the organizer to print the form with all formated text and data base entries just as it is shown in the submitted form....that is, with details, instructions, requirements, etc that would be indicated in the formatted text area.

3. Blank templates formatted to print on 81/2x11 portrait and landscape with adjustable margins.

This would allow a complete form to be on file for both entrant and organizer. And this saves most organizers a ton of time in transposing data. The saved database return is fine. Many organizers must have a complete entry form on file.

If I missed the ability to do these things, please provide some guideance

Thanks

#1- Ctrl + V
#2- Check your printer settings.
#3- I would submit the data to mysql or csv then import the data using php and you can format the data to display any way you want.:)
I can't hear what I'm looking at.
It's easy to overlook something you're not looking for.
