I need to create a form on my website that viewers fill out and send to me on my iWeb created website. Is there a template or widget that can create fill-in forms?

I need to create a form that viewers can fill-in and send back to me from my website.  I created the website in iWeb and would like a template or theme that has the form creator included.  It there a widget?  Sorry, I'm a novice.

If you want to raise your web design skill level above that of the average iWeb user, you can try creating your own. The actual form layout is fairly easy if you use CSS to style it since the amount of HTML is minimal now that table layouts are a thing of the past.
Here's some examples of forms created in iWeb...

The formmail.php script is probably the hardest part to get your head around and the example provided in the download on the above page uses a very simple one along with a formmail-thank.php.

Nowadays we need to consider mobile device users more and more so forms need to have the special inputs required to launch the various types of keyboard on these devices.
Here's an example of a form which responds to browser/device width. On mobile devices, the
jQuery UI Datepicker disappears to be replaced by the mobile version.
For those of you who don't have a mobile device to test it on, this page also has illustrations of the various keyboard types and the alternative date pickers...

  • Create a Doc for Filling Out and Sending On

    I'm trying to create a document for pricing quotes.
    The idea is that I (designer) create a document (writable) for a client to fill out, save (unwritable), and send to customers for price quotes.
    I've tried:
    creating text boxes - but when the document is filled out and saved, the client is still invited to change the fields (we don't want that!)
    creating signature boxes - which pulls up a lengthy and complicated signature field
    signing the document with multiple signatures - a hassle I wouldn't wish on a client
    going to the "sign" field of Adobe Reader, clicking "Add Text," and saving the document. - The save option still leaves the text editable upon reopening; the email option requires an echo account, which we're not looking for because we aren't actually creating legal documents.
    Any advice? I could really use it!George Johnson was helping before, when I hijacked Island Lady's thread (eep! sorry about that!)
    I'm using InDesign to create the document, saving into Acrobat Pro, and and/or reading in Adobe Reader (which my client will be using).
    A sample of the document is HERE

    Here are the preliminary instructions I'm sending to my client:
    Open the Document in Acrobat Reader 11.0.07
    Click on “Sign.”
    Click on “Place Signature” -or- if you’ve already done this once, click on the corresponding arrow, then click on “Change Saved Signature”
    Select “Type my signature”
    Type the word/s you would like to type in the “Enter Your Name” field (never mind that it’s not your name )
    Click “Accept”
    Drop the word/s in the text field you would like them to go in.
    Repeat until the form is filled out.
    Click “Signed. Proceed to Send”
    Click on “Save a Copy”
    Rename your document so that a copy is saved for you to email to the customer.
    Email your document using your own email program.
    Finished!

  • How to save Fillable PDF form created in XI - So Acrobat Reader can fill out and send back

    Hi, Im extremely hopeful someone can help me with this question, Ive had extreme luck with this question site, you have all been amazing.
    I have created a fillable form in Adobe Acrobat XI and I have saved my work and Im ready to send the form to my client.
    I have been told that I need to save my file in a manner that the general public that does not have Acrobat XI, and mainly has acrobat reader, will be able to open, fill my form out, and send back to me completed.
    How do I do this.
    Ive run a couple tests with coworker and its not allowing the saving of the information that she filled out.
    Does anyone know how I need to save and distribute this form so I get it back filled out from my clients? that probably have only reader?
    thanks in advance for your help.
    Amy

    I think I figured this out???? My pdf tester has gone to bed, so hopefully I will know by morning if this is my solution......
    Open the PDF in Acrobat XI (the form you have saved that is ready to be filled out to whoever you distribute the form to).
    Choose Advanced > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader (Acrobat 8/9) (if you have XI do not do this step, but do step 4 for XI)
    or
    File > Save As >Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features (Acrobat X) (Its actually not in save as, but in save as other)
    Save the PDF using a different file name, you will be using this new file to be the file you will distribute.
    When you now open the PDF in Adobe Reader you will be able to fill the form and save the data and then send it back to the author that is requesting the form to be filled out.

  • FORM CANNOT BE FILLED-OUT AND SAVED?

    I want the user to fill-out and be able to save to their computer, without saving over my original. It works fine if the user has acrobat standard 8,but if they don't or only have Adobe Reader, the form cannot be filled out and saved. Only a blank copy can be saved or the form filled-out and printed. Please help if you have a solution. Thanks.

    Templates designed in LC accept data input from the users however users need to open these templates in Adobe Acrobat. Users can also use Adobe Reader however as designer you need to enable certain user rights for them to fill the forms like they do in Acrobat. For that you need use Adobe ReaderExtensions server this could be little expensive if you are just doing few forms. This server software is licensed based on number of uses or for unlimited uses. If you can not afford both there are few servers available over net to enable those user rights for a fee. You may Google them.

  • Is there a way to create a PDF form that ANYONE can fill out and SAVE with their content?

    Is there a way to create a PDF form that ANYONE can fill out and SAVE with their content? By anyone, I mean someone who can download and use the free Adobe Reader, on either a Mac or PC. I have Acrobat Pro, and would like to be able to create forms that can not only be filled out and printed, but saved and emailed, which is not an option with the forms I have created to date. They can be filled out, but not saved, with Adobe Reader.
    TIA,
    Nancy

    To do what Dave indicated you need to do, it depends on what version of Acrobat you have:
    Acrobat 8: Advanced > Enable Usage Rights in Adobe Reader
    Acrobat 9: Advanced > Extend Features in Adobe Reader
    Acrobat 10: File > Save As > Reader Extended PDF > Enable Additional Features
    Acrobat 11: File > Save as Other > Reader Extended PDF > Enable More Tools (includes form fill-in & save)
    I wonder what it will be next time?

  • Create a Form in Acrobat Standard that can be filled out AND SIGNED using Free Reader

    I am tasked with creating forms that can be read, filled out and signed and submitted electronically by users that have only the reader software. I am using Acrobat 5 standard. I have not yet found a way to successfully create a form field that would allow users to insert a signature of some sort. This signature does not have to be encrypted, or use the digital signature system Adobe Acrobat has where you create a profile, log in, etc. It could be as simple as the ability to insert a jpeg or other image of their handwritten signature. This is to avoid having to have them fill it out, and then print it and fax or scan it in. It would be great if they could fill it out and then just save it and email it. How would I do this, or is it even possible?
    Thanks,
    JOhn

    With AA5, there is no capability to submit a signature - even electronic. You can create a form that can be filled out, signed in the sense of adding a name and date, and submit to a web site.
    Insertion of images is not part of forms with AA5, but I think has become possible recently. Even so, they reader would also have to be compatible with the feature to be able to use it. If the typing of the name and the date would do, then you can add those fields - sort of the limit with AA5.
    With AA5, they can not save the form with the data. They can submit the data as an FDF file to a web site. If you have control of the client machines, then you can consider e-mail since those issues can be worked out locally. Without control of the clients (like a general form on the web), don't bother with e-mail since there will always be some that have problems.

  • Can I make a form that could be emailed filled out and returned

    I'd like to create a form that I can email my students and that they could fill out and return.
    Is there a site or video that could help me learn this?
    Perhaps create a template?

    Not in Pages, except to create the basic form itself.
    The best method is create a pdf form, using Acrobat Pro to fill in the data fields of the form.
    The students can use the free Acrobat Reader to fill in the fields, which you can have sent electronically back to you or whatever database you want, or as a simple dumb form that accepts their typing.
    To have a quiz style multiple choice document, that even corrects and sums up results use iBooks [free], very similar to Pages, or a dedicated application for this style of work.

  • I cannot open a form that has been filled out and email back to me.

    Hi,
    I created a form in Adobe 8 with an email link.  When the form is filled out and emailed back to me, I am unable to open it in a readable format.  It is sent back to me in an XML Document.
    I am new to this - can anyone help me please??

    I hope its not preview.

  • Is there a way to save a fillable form (in Reader) as a static (uneditiable) image and send it for signature without the recipient being able to revise the fields at all?

    Is there a way to save a fillable form (in Reader) as a static (uneditiable) image and send it for signature without the recipient being able to revise the fields at all? I have designed a number of fillable forms and sent them to our clients as Reader extended pdfs to be filled out and sent back. Now, certain clients want to be able to fill in the fields and save the doc as a pdf that can't be tampered with so that they can send it to their own people for signature to be returned to them hand-signed and scanned via email.
    Since the forms have been secured, and my cleints are only using the free Acrobat Reader, how can they save the filled in form as a static pdf to send on for signature? They do not want to have to print, scan and email. Is there an app, plug-in, simple solution to this?
    Thank you,
    Rumor

    The signature WILL work! I've just looked into it more, thank you so much for pointing me in that direction.
    I get it now, it locks the form fields in place after my coworker fills them in and signs it (as the very last step).
    I wish I would have asked on here a full day ago. Would have saved a lot of headache and Googling.
    Thanks again.

  • How to fill out and submit a web form using LabVIEW

    Almighty Forum,
    This question will require knowledge not only of LabVIEW, but also of HTML, JavaScripting, and possibly more.  I don't know about you, but I have an on-line account for pretty much everything: Bank, Credit Card, Savings, ETrade, 401K, Roth IRA, etc.  About once a day I want to go and check on everything (because I'm an anal engineer), but it takes so freaking long to navigate and login to each site.  Even after favoriting all the links and using cookies to save my "username", I still have to type in my password, hit enter, and wait for each site.  This takes time, time is money, and money is why I'm doing this in the first place; so, I need a better solution.  And since I stand by LabVIEW, I want a LabVIEW solution. 
    The solution in my head is something like this.  I have one front panel with an embedded IE browser (in an ActiveX container).  On the side of the browser I have my "favorite" toolbar.  When I click on a button in the toolbar, it takes me to the site and automatically logs me in.  Simple.  Now once that is working I could make a single app with no browser interface that simply went out and queried all my sites for the important values and displayed them on the front panel.  But not to get ahead of myself, I'll stick with my first goal for now.  Baby steps.
    So here is what I have now.  I can load www.bankofamerica.com into my browser and automatically enter my "online ID" and "passcode".  I just can't seem to figure out how to submit the form.  I realize that I could just simulate a mouse click on the coordinates of the Sign In button, but that would not be nearly elegant enough for me to have pride in this application. 
    If you run the VI that I'm posting, and click Submit Info, you are taken to a error page saying something along the lines of "We're temporarily unable to process this request.  Please try again."  Now this would probably make sense with the "dummy" ID and passcode that is being used in this VI, but I get the same thing when I use my real information.  I'm beginning to think that this is something BOA has done to prevent people from logging in programmatically.  That would probably make sense to deter potential hackers.
    There's got to be a way...  can you help?  This might take some time, but think how it could help streamline you in the long-run
    PS:  I down-converted the VI to 7.0 format for anybody stuck in 2003
    Thanks,

    Simply stated, you want to hit some button on your app and instantly see all your accounts no matter where from, is that correct?
    Hi Otman,
    Actually, my first goal is to be able to hit a single button that automatically logs into a single account.  For example, when Bank of America Login - test.vi (attached above) is run, it should automatically:
    1) Navigate to www.bankofamerica.com
    2) Programmatically enter the "Online ID" and "Passcode"
    3) Submit the form and log in
    Its step 3 that I'm having trouble with.  Again, see the VI attached to my first post for a good example of what I'm talking about.
    Thanks,

  • Need to create form that user can fill out and SAVE in Reader

    Hi,
    My form, which of course works fine in Adobe Acrobat 4 CS4, is unsaveable when typed into with Acrobat Reader. It says at the top:
    "Please fill out the following form. You cannot save data typed into this form. Please print your completed form if you would like a copy for your records."
    *I know it's possible* to make it writable/saveable for Readers users, because I have here a form that someone else created, and in Reader the message says, "Please fill out the following form. You can save data typed into this form."
    What setting do I need to change in Acrobat to make it saveable in Reader? Document attached.
    Thank you in advance!!!!

    Phillip,
    Thank you for the clarification.
    I cannot seem to find the post that mentioned that this could not be done; perhaps it was for an older version of Acrobat. If I find it, I'll send you the URL.
    This is a form that will reside on a web site for download, and the forms are used by individuals to track exercise as part of a community nonprofit wellness program. I doubt 500 folks will use it. We can monitor downloads.
    If we need to go above 500 downloads, how would we go about purchasing a license for additional use? And, is there a chance that Adobe will increase this limit for a purpose that is non-commercial and non-profit?
    Thanks.
    I don't know the answers to the question about license for additional use, nor would Adobe increase the limit. I  among other that were associated with Non-profits (I was treasury for an Electronics Association for 17 years) were the reason for adobe doing this to begin with. Before Acrobat 8, you had to use the other methods mentioned (The LiveCycle Server).

    After the uproar from Users about Standard being little more than Apple's Print to PDF; there hasn't been a Standard version for Mac since version 6. So many people were use the features in Acrobat 5  to create Forms that could be filled out by Reader. when the bought 6 Standard they were ready to hang the CEO of Adobe in effigy. When 7 came out is was Pro only.
    I'm confused.
    The current version of Acrobat comes in Standard, Pro, and Extended Pro versions. Only the Pro version is on the Mac. But that doesn't mean that the Mac community wouldn't have wanted the Standard version of Acrobat.
    The Standard version is hardly a mimic of Apple's Save to PDF. The most important features of Standard is to enable Rights in Reader as well as add comments, form fields. etc.
    The only thing that Standard does do are the pre-press and production features of Pro.
    However, given the difference in price ($450 vs. $300) there is ample reason for business on the Mac OS to buy Standard--if they could buy it.
    I didn't say PC users.
    I should have said Mac users. Because the Print system and sytem by which Mac users view anything is based on the PDF engine. The Mac sytem can do anything Standard Standrd could do. although in order to placate Adobe the pdf engine used is a version or two behind. If the Mac OS could do everything Acrobat could do there would be no reason for Adobe to provide Acrobat Or Reader for Mac.
    And you basing your assumption of what Standard can do a PC. Standard on Mac is basically Mac's Print to PDF  wrapped in an Adobe Package. It shad no ability to confer rights to reader (that didn't come to Acrobat Mac until Version 8) and was unable to to create forms. The current version of Acrobat PC comes as Standard, Pro, And extended. There never has and never will be an extended pro version for Mac (that adds the ability to create XML based forms) They don't have the interest. To adobe is little more than a Play toy. Because Windows has so much clout They can dictate what they want. Apple not so much. One advantage Mac does have is that Forms creator is built in. on PC its an adon (it free but an addon or was).
    Now back in OS 9 days and Acrobat 5.x Acrobat for Mac and PC were equal. except to have the print press features Mac users had to pay an addition $200.00.  (It exactly as you described in your last sentence - except Acrobat 5.x without the printpress and The Acrobat 5 without Print press was $299.00 and $499.00 with Print press.) I know I've used Acrobat since version 3.
