Location: Hive at 55 55 Broad Street, 13th Floor New York, NY 10004 Chairperson: Stewart Newfeld 6:00 - 6:15 - Introductions 6:15 - 8:00 Presentation 1 by Stewart Newfeld: Two very powerful Joomla Extensions are available for creating forms and form applications: RSJoomla! offers RSForm!Pro (Prices starting at 19 Euros), and Chronoengine offers Chronoforms and Chronoconnectivity (Free version available). RSForm!Pro is one of the most clearly documented Joomla Extensions available. Chronoforms' most basic functionallity is documented in FAQs, but for anything advanced you are left hunting through the forums, posting questions to the forums, or like Stewart did, hiring a person to train you. These two programs take very different approaches to creating forms. Stewart will compare and contrast them, and demonstrate a few case studies for Chronoforms. Presentation 2 by Stewart Newfeld: Did you ever need to generate PDF documents from within Joomla? When you need to generate documents in a format with predicatable, controllable printing, you can't beat the PDF format. Stewart will discuss some possible solutions and demonstrate creating fundrasing letters in .pdf format, from form input data, by restoring the fpdf library that used to be in Joomla 1.5, but was removed in Joomla 1.6. 8:00-8:30 Lightening Round Question and Answers, Networking. Stewart Newfeld, President New York City Joomla Users Group (NYCJUG) Meetings 6-8:30PM every 3rd Thursday of the Month Check our website: www.joomlanyc.org NYCJUG_Logo_Signature_Thursdays
