Calculations please!

I think the current set-up has some redundancy for radio buttons...

For example...

price value
Radio1:100, Radio2:200, Radio3:300, Radio4:400

is the same as...

price multiplier
Radio1:1, Radio2:2, Radio3:3, Radio4:4
with the price input set to 100
----------------------------------------------------------
It would be very nice if I could set a radio button to be either an addition, subtraction or multiplier of a particular number variable.

eg

price <multiplier> <of cost [myCost]>
Radio1:1, Radio2:2, Radio3:3 etc...

OR

price <addition> <of cost [myCost]
Radio1:100, Radio2:200 etc..

then

TotalCost = <[myCost]> <+> <[myCost2]><*><[mytax]

( <> = user choice from drop down )

Thank you for considering!

For image elements, it would be nice to be able to center them and float them left or right.

Did you know that Web Form Builder can be used for both simple and complicated forms and that it's not limited to the default fonts and buttons? Take a look at a form we developed for WindowTinting.com.

Suggestion for:
   Web Form Builder 2.4.5318
   Drop Down Element
   Options Property
   Preferred Options Selector

Buttons available:
   Browse Lists - opens list of existing options lists in a new Windows Explorer window (in Win7 at least)
   Refresh Lists - refreshes List pane so one can see the new list they created* and saved
   Add List - adds the contents of the selected list to the existing items already on the list in your form!
    Cancel - obvious

The problem:
   Note that Add List does NOT clear the existing list in the form. It only adds the items from the list you selected to the list of items already on the form. Then you have to go back to the form and manually delete all of the list items you didn't want. You might have to delete only a few items or, God forbid you accidentally added the list of states, many items.

The Solution:
   On the odd chance that one wanted to stack together various lists for some reason, leave the Add List button in place and add a Replace List button that deletes the existing list items (presently in the form) and then adds the items from the list selected.

   * Yes, you can create your own lists! See: http://www.coffeecup.com/help/articles/ … m-builder/

The ability to duplicate a field with all it's properties is very good, as is simple drag & drop.

It would be even better if you could select a RANGE (drag the mouse) or COLLECTION (Ctrl+Click) of fields and copy or drag them all at once instead of one at a time. This would be very useful, especially in large, complex forms.

My wish is have the ability to select Javascript instead of iframe for insertion of a form in an existing page. iFrame is far from offering flexibility of page design now we have mobile friendly (responsive) pages being forced on us by Google... This is my Opinion of course. Opinions are like noses, everybody has one.

Form Builder has always given you that. You get a JavaScript and <iframe> markup. Just delete everything in the <noscript></noscript> block (which includes the iframe) if you do not want to use it. Yes, it is that easy. ;)

So this:
<script type="text/javascript">document.write(unescape("%3Ciframe id=\"fb_iframe\" src=\"donation.php" + window.location.search + "\" width=\"602\" height=\"611\"allowtransparency=\"true\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\"%3E&lt;a href=\"donation.php\" title=\"donation\"&gt;Check out my CoffeeCup Form&lt;/a&gt;%3C/iframe%3E"));</script>
<noscript>
<iframe width="602" height="611" style="border:none; background:transparent; overflow:hidden;"
id="fb_iframe" src="donation/donation.html">
<a href="donation.php" title="donation">Check out my CoffeeCup Form</a>
</iframe>
</noscript>

Becomes this:

<script type="text/javascript">document.write(unescape("%3Ciframe id=\"fb_iframe\" src=\"donation.php" + window.location.search + "\" width=\"602\" height=\"611\"allowtransparency=\"true\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\"%3E&lt;a href=\"donation.php\" title=\"donation\"&gt;Check out my CoffeeCup Form&lt;/a&gt;%3C/iframe%3E"));</script>

The reason we give both is because if JavaScript is disabled, the form will still appear.

Would love a few things.

Birthday field - similar to date selector - but easy for the to track back through the years.
Advanced Validation - to be able to have it cross check for example if a unique code it correct. Otherwise it bounces out.
Different form of Captcha - that doesn't take up a chunk of space - maybe something like those 1x1 = versions or am I a robot - yes or not.

This that about does it..
