How to make a form from a flow chart.

I want to make a flow chart into a form for a website.  For example, I have a flow chart that leads to various solutions based on yes/no answers.  I want the user to be able to enter in yes or no, and be directed to further questions or answers based on the answers they provide.  Is there an easy way to approach this?  Perhaps a form is not the best method?

Ajax (Javascript) would have an edge over PHP in regards to responsiveness. The best solution might combine all three methods (PHP, Javascript, HTML).
Are the responses going to be stored in a database? If so then you can also use the database to store the questions, complete with form fields.
One big difference between javascript and PHP is that PHP does nothing until you either open a new page or hit submit, and then it runs in a linear fashion until it reaches the end of the script. Javascript, on the other hand, can respond to other "events" that take place, such as when the user clicks away from a form field. With the advent of html5, HTML now has a little of the responsiveness of javascript.
PHP is the tool you use for processing form data and interacting with the database, if each form response is followed by a complete PHP processing cycle, the form will seem sluggish to the user. There are two solutions to this:
Have the user respond to a group of questions, then hit submit. The occasional lag for page reload won't bother the user.
Use AJAX to interact with the PHP form processing behind the scenes.
So yes, you can have one page that responds and changes depending on user input. PHP, javascript and HTML5/CSS3 can all be part of this. The specific way you build your solution will depend on your specific form progress and what technologies you are most comfortable with. For instance, my strong case is PHP, so I let it do as much of the work as possible, but I know coders who do much of what I would do in PHP with javascript, because that's what they are most comfortable using.
Any resources on how I might be able to do this via PHP?

  • How to make a form for input in web interface builder

    Hi expert:
        How to make a form for input in web interface builder?I have already used it to do PS planning, but I don't know how to  draw lines and checkboxes . Thanks in advance.

    WAD:
    Open the WAD and create a new template. On the left hand navigation you will have several Web Items available. Under 'Standard' you have 'Analysis' item. Pull that into your template to the right. Under the Properties tab you need to pick the query [form/layout] that you have built in Query Designer.
    You will also find other items such as Button group, Checkbox, drop down, list box etc available. Pick and drag into the template whatever it is you require. Lets say you want a button. Under the Properties tab select the 'Command' that you require. You could use standard commands that are available there. You could also define functions and commands that you require.
    Query Designer:
    Open the QD and drag the characteristics and key figures that you require into the rows and columns of the QD. You would need to specify restrictions under the Filter tab of the QD based on the granularity of data that you require. You would need to remember that the key figures need to be made Input Ready [do this by clicking on KF and on the planning tab select "change by user and planning functions"].
    This shouldgive you a start. After you've explored it yourself a bit we can discuss further and I can certainly provide you additional details/material on these areas.

  • Hi can anyone tell me how to make the forms url short to the end user

    Hi,
    Im using oracle forms 11gR2 and everything is working fine, but my question in how to make the forms url short to the end user.
    For example my forms url is  " http://localhost:9001/forms/frmservlet "  now i want to modify this url as   "myweb.gov.ae"
    can anybody suggest me the possibilities to change to default forms url to our own url as mentioned in the above example.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Hari

    You would have to either -
    * edit the code pointed to by the new action attribute to
    include the form
    processing and email generation, or
    * edit the form processing script to also include the insert
    record and
    check user name scripting
    The former is probably the better procedure, since I suppose
    you'd want to
    do the check user name before sending the email.
    Unfortunately, this means
    you will have to get your hands into the code, or hire
    someone to do it for
    you.

    Secondly, you used capital latters which are being treated as Shouting Language. So, always try to switch off the Capslock of your keyboard.
    Thirdly, you are very lazy to serach on forum or google for your problem instead of waiting someone to anwer your question.
    Your should seriously have a look at FAQ.

  • How to call a form from WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT 10g  Is this possible?????

    how to call a form from WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT
    I would like to call a form using the WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT the idea is from the menu that is attached to the form instead of use call_form use WEB.SHOW_DOCUMENT(...my_newform.fmx)
    Is this possible?????

    Hi ,
    I think yes...but under some circumstances....
    In your formsweb.cfg file you should define a named configuration alias... such as:
    [TEST]
    workingDirectory=C:\TEST_DIR
    form=C:\TEST_DIR\MY_NEWFORM.FMX
    Then , after stopping , starting your OC4J instance..... you call that as (in a button , for example):
    web.show_document('http:<your_server>:<port>/forms/frmservlet?config=[TEST]',_blank);
    I have not tested it.....

    HOW TO COPY A FORM FROM ONE TO ANOTHER CLIENT

    Hi Tina,
    To copy either a Script or a Smartform fron one client to another client i.e from reference client 000 to any client say 010  follow instructions as given below:
    Go to Tcode SE71->Give Form name MEDRUCK then go to Menu path Utilities->Copy From Client, give
    Form Name: MEDRUCK
    SOURCE:000 (it will be already there)
    Target Form: Zmedruck(here give ur form zname)
    Execute
    It will be copied into all languages.
    Then come back to SE71
    Give your form name Zmedruck
    Language:: de then goto change mode
    then menu path->utilities->convert original languge to En and enter you will get a message original language of form zmedruck converted from de to en,
    now  change language de to en in se71 main screen and then do what ever changes you want to do , this is how you can copy a script or smartform from one client to another client.
    If this answer is useful reward points any queries revert me back.

    How do I make a silhouette from a portrait?
    Ah, but wouldn’t it be ever so much easier to explain if you actually provided (a lores of) the image in question?
    And how do I make the background transparent?
    Preferably with a Layer Mask and then saving in the appropriate file format (psd or png24 for example support transparency).

  • How to make bootable iso from download

    how to make bootable iso from download

    This one - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5587
    1st:  This is NOT a .ISO file!!
    2nd.  It is a .MSI file which is a Microsoft Installer file.
    3rd:  Read the instructions:
    Install Instructions:
    Click the Download button to start the download.
    Do one of the following:
    To start the installation immediately, click Run.
    To save the download to your computer for installation at a later time, click
    Save.
    To cancel the installation, click Cancel.
    When installation completes a file called readme.txt will open to provide instructions for burning a home computer restore CD. The file is also located
    next to the ISO image file for later reference.
    4th: If you are unable to read and follow instructions, there is nothing anyone in these forums can do to assist you.  You must be capable of reading and following instructions! 
    Please remember to click “Mark as Answer” on the post that helps you, and to click “Unmark as Answer” if a marked post does not actually answer your question. This can be beneficial to other community members reading the thread. ”
    OK, well sorry to disagree with you but:-
    1. Using windows 7, the download does not provide a save but only a run option.
    2. In the MS predownload instructions you copied it refers to the readme text next to "the ISO image"
    3. This is a copy of the read me file attached:-
    "This ReadMe document is one of the Windows Home Server Home Computer Restore CD files. Unless you changed the installation location during setup, the Home Computer Restore CD files and license terms are located in one of the following folders:
    * On Windows Vista: %HOMEPATH%\Documents\Windows Home Server Home Computer Restore CD (Dual Boot)
    * On Windows XP: %HOMEPATH%\My Documents\Windows Home Server Home Computer Restore CD (Dual Boot)
    To use the Home Computer Restore CD software, you must write the ISO image file (restorecd_dual.iso) to a blank CD. A CD/DVD burner is required to write
    the ISO image file to the CD. Usually a CD/DVD burner includes the software that you need to write ISO image files. Follow the instructions with your burner software, and then select the option to write an ISO image, not the option to write
    individual files. Note that you cannot write the ISO image by using Windows Explorer to copy the file to the CD-ROM drive.
    Burning the ISO image creates a bootable CD. To restore your home computer, boot the computer from the CD and follow the instructions.
    Microsoft may update the Windows Home Server Home Computer Restore CD software. You can download the latest version from the Microsoft Web site at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=109282.
    If you want to review the license terms for the Windows Home Server Home Computer Restore CD, the file EULA_DUAL.TXT can be found in the same folder"
    As you will see it refers to the downloaded .iso file. Nowhere is there a reference to a msi.  As there was only a run function on the downloaded file, it could not be saved. How is an ordinary Windows user meant to interpret the instructs
    if the download function does not work? What you do is try and follow the instructions and produce a load of frigging coffee mats, as it seems did many of the posters on this thread. Are we all illiterate?
    If Microsoft could think in the way of a user it would help a lot of people.
    So Rick Dee, please inform me how I misread the instructions?
