The lack of granular control of the field names, field locations and sizes limits the capability of building any sort of complex form. There is no reason a name field and label should have to fill most of the width of a 600 pixel form.
I just built some forms with the old Web Form Builder that had 40+ fields in them. They were aesthetically pleasing and had good flow across and down the page.
The Lite version appears to only be able to build simple forms with the fields stacked vertically.
I look forward to the "Full" version that I am sure will be much more capable.
Keep up the good work.

Unless I am missing something, is there a way to make selections be blank so that there isn't one automatically marked? I'm sure I won't be the only one that doesn't want their users to send something in without realizing that a field had something already selected and that's what they end up with. I always like to make them be defaulting to the Make Your Selection or Select One or whatever you have for your Title so that it forces them to actually make a choice.
Right now the check boxes and the list boxes are the only ones that come out without a choice prechosen.

Thanks for the reply.
My vote is to allow unlimited forms for the s-drive Webbie accounts. Why move people away from hosting with CoffeeCup.
There are many hosting services that will host for $50-$90/year. At $5/month ($60/year) you are competitive. If you would require a payment of $15/month ($180/year) I would imagine many would not host using CoffeeCup.
Thanks for your great service!

You are referring to Drop Down lists correct Jo Ann? If so, yes that is something that MUST be addressed and it is already on the list.

Thanks Scott,
Yes the dropdowns, the radio buttons both have selections already chosen.

Hey...I love it so far. I think you guys are on the right track
I agree with spacing and being able to place fields and text next to each other, this will help with the look and flow of the site.
I love the drop in widget aspect!
Customizing the length of the fields would be a plus...like the old one we had.
Love the fact it is HTML - iPad and iPhone worthy - good job
I want to get my hands on the Full Version as I am more of a code guy and want to mess with jazzing it up.
Never used the S Drive till now and for the person who does not know a lot this is a great option.
Personally I like to have the PHP or ASP to tweak on my own server...Manual server will be up in 1-2 weeks so can't wait for that.
I think this will work great for my needs...thank you and look forward in diving into the code!

p.s just read the note on the themes...mine turns up a black screen with no errors...thought it was due to the fact that this was the lite version. Am using a Windows 7 Machine I-3 chip.

Can you try this. Restart the program and wait a few seconds for it to load. Now add any element to the form and then click the Themes Toolbar Icon. Let me know if they load now.

The form builder lite is very cool but two things I saw first off. One is a phone number verification style might be nice. The other minor thing is when you hit submit and you have the settings generic so it just sends back at the top of the form the Thank You message it does not bounce you back up. Should have an anchor where the thank you message is and then have the script bounce the browser back to that location. In FireFox it just left me at the bottom of the form looking at nothing. I scrolled up and saw the message. Form is out at http://www.wwmgmt.org/juliedudanew/contact_us.htm This site is in draft form being developed right now and this is the only page for testing.
Got the emails and it says Who as Root User ??? The email back to the website person says it is from Contacform@webdelicious coffeecup.com
How do those get changed to real names...thought is was using the field names for those ids

I will check into that Bill and see what is going on. I know they are working on that.
Your form e-mails on S-Drive will come from your S-Drive server address. If you setup your own domain name, then it will come from that domain name address.
