Well don't I feel like an idiot (shut up Jo Ann). I somehow missed pre-selected in this conversation. So for those of you that do not already ignore my ramblings, please do. :D

Now I'm confused (ok more so than usual)... If you missed "pre-selected" how is it that you posted examples that confirmed what Scott was asking for (and supporting Jo Ann's request)?

I was sure that I'd never really seen Radio Buttons start blanked out, but after seeing your examples, I was doubting. And now it seems to make alot of sense to leave them blank UNTIL the user inputs an option.

Exactly. None of those are pre-selected. Whose side am I on? LOL. :)

Given I'm not doing anything too creative with my form, but I've downloaded the newest version, and all works fine. Changed a few options, received emails fine, quickly & as expected. :)

When I signed in I noticed that the submit button was hidden until the info was entered. This I thought was a good option. and would be a nice addition. You must have the code as it is in use on the sign in page.
I am looking forward to replacing some of my flash forms.

This feature could be an option tied in to say one or two elements probably the email entry one would be best on validation.

All this radio button talk pales into insignificance when those of us have purchased the software and then find we can send it to an SQL data base or even a CSV file or text file.

Could we have an update when a beta will be available so we can at least use the forms we have made please??

That will be available soon. Please note, it only works with MySQL just as it did with the Classic version. You can however still use the forms you have now. The only differences is right now they are hosting on S-Drive.

I have to pay for it again? What's the point of a lifetime license when you aren't going to improve it anymore? How stupid. Might as well add a pro version to everything or make me pay for everything again. :rolleyes:

Though we'd like to offer the new Web Form Builder as a free upgrade to existing registered users, we are considering it a new program. The reason for this is that the Classic version was written in Flash and the new version has been built entirely on HTML.

Upgrades are always free within the life-cycle of the program. But don't think we are changing the name just to charge more money — that would be untrue. This program is a complete 100% re-write of the software that accomplishes tasks in a completely different way and, as such, we consider it a new program. ;)

You can see a feature comparison chart of the two programs here: http://www.coffeecup.com/help/articles/ … m-builder/

But there's good news! For a very limited amount of time, we are offering a $29 special so you can get the new HTML version as well as a bunch of other form-related stuff for one low price. When the FULL version is released in the next 1-2 weeks, there will no longer be an upgrade option. If you think the $29 is a good deal given everything that it comes with, then go for that, because you'll be able to upgrade to the full version at no extra cost.

If you are still on the fence, check out some of these discussions here on the new HTML version:
