Hi,
The
html form functionality has already been implemented, however it has no
postprocessing. Entries are just send by email.
See
the package MyMailform under
An
example of the mailform in use is:
If you
would like to add postprocessing to the form I would like to help design and
implement it.
Regards, Henk.

Hi,
We want to add a generic HTML form function to our MMBased CMS. This functionality will enable editors to define end-user targeted HTML forms consisting of any combination of text, checkboxes, radiobuttons and single selectbox fields in any order with prompts and basic validation options. For radiobuttons and selectboxes the editor should be able to define the list of values. Furthermore, back-end functionality is needed in which the editors can view, analyse and aggregate the form entries made by end-users on his particular form. Another requirement is the possibility to export these entries into CSV or Excel format.
I more or less envision how I could design and build it but my question is whether this functionality is already (partly) available somewhere ?
Also tips and ideas on this are welcome.
Regards and thanks in advance,
Peter
MMbase has/had some things for scan based sites, i personally like the idea but i wonder how this would work. My first guess would be a 'preprocessor' that generates the needed taglib pages. Creating special new functions for this doesn't sound to smart and not easy to maintain. Having it create 'normal' taglib commands means its easer to update and maintain also means you can allways change the results by hand.
