One of the easiest ways is to download WebFormDesigner and paste the generated HTML code onto your SS page using a code object.

If you prefer to do your own thing, see Help > Load Tutorials > "FormIntro" (Forms Introduction).

I found a site that will allow your site to host a form, create the code for you, and do the emailing for you. emailmeform

Good Luck!

That looks like a good site for short response forms, what about one for applications? I currently use WebFormDesigner for our on-line application. It's ok, except the information is so difficult to read the way it is layed out in the email form when it is submitted. If anyone knows of a good free program to use to make an on-line application, please let me know. Thanks.

blarmour,

You want an on-line application form to look like a regular paper form, and then have that same info sent to you also looking like that same paper form?

Yes, if that's possible, that would be ideal.

Not really, I was just trying to understand what you wanted.

The only method I know of to display a paper-like form is to use PDF, but this would not accomplish what you needed on the back-end.

If what you needed on the back-end is an e-mail that is readable by someone with little or no understanding of how the data was obtained, then perhaps enhancing your form mail script to put the data into a readable format would work.

Unfortunately, my search of the web did not find any programs or scripts that will do this. It looks like this is mainly an area where custom programming is required. I could modify the script if this is what you need, If so, then feel free to contact me (my e-mail is in my public profile).

Perhaps you need the data formatted in a particular way. How do you use the form data? Can you use it as a comma-delimited data file that can be used as input to another program you use, such as Access or Excel, or merged into a Word template?

That's ok, sounds too complicated and not worth the effort. I just thought you might know of a program already out there that would work. Hard to believe with all the businesses out there with on-line applications, that there would be a program somewhere out there...of course with the economy in the tank, not too many companies hiring now anyway. Thanks for your effort.
