I have some experience with PHP, Apache, and MySQL so this program caught my eye. Is there a MySQL DB setup on the S drive that this WebForm program writes to? In a work setting, I'm using Apache and MySQL on the back end and PHP w/HTML on the front end. How does this Web Form Builder software facilitate the process I've already got going??? Just curious and trying to understand what it does better. TIA.

The Form builder will upload to S_Drive and you will have stats on the form inputs. The output will go to MSQL only on your own hosted site, you only have to set up a DB and put the details in settings for the form. It also outputs a csv file.
For simple data manipulation I use that output and can do pretty much anything with it.
If you have that knowledge you will no doubt know that the form is just the means to an end. For those occasions where I need a form I can get down and dirty with, I find the HTML Editor is just the ticket. It makes creating a form easy. Not as easy and as snazzy though as WFB does.

I purchased all three and have the tools to accomplish any task. Mostly I use the Visual Site Designer. Why use a Axe when a scalpel does a finer job. With 20 sites and growing I would not be without my CC toys, and I might add still have time to throw my cap in the ring here.
