Creating Forms
Introduction
Forms are all around us… You fill out forms to get your dri-ver's license, apply for a job; even to get married. A simpledefinition of a form would be some method for extractinginformation on a particular subject. For example, to fill out ajob application form, you would have to enter your pertinentinformation on who you are (name, address), recent jobs,why you're experienced enough to apply for the job, andgovernment stuff, like your social security number. An evensimpler definition would be to say that forms collect informa-tion… it's how you collect that information that makes all thedifference.
For example, you might design your form on paper, andthe person filling out the form is required to write the infor-mation down with a pen or pencil. The information is col-lected by another person, and along with other forms,compiled (by hand) into a final readable product. Not veryefficient; however, that's the way it was done, many longyears ago.
Today forms are filled out on a computer screen; the datais validated and compiled into a readable final product, alongwith relevant statistics and averages. What I'm describing iscreating electronic forms, designed, implemented, and fin-ished, all with the help of Adobe Dreamweaver.
Adobe Dreamweaver simplifies the process of creatingand implementing forms of any size and complexity. In thischapter you learn how to create basic forms, and populatethe forms with all the goodies, such as: check boxes, radiobuttons, text input fields; even drop-down menus.
Once a form is created, it can deposit that informationinto an appended database, where other statistical applica-tions can massage the data into any structure desired by thefinal user.

As mentioned in the previous section, formsare all about the collection and eventual pro-cessing of information. Considering the infor-mation-based society that we live and workin, without forms the entire world wouldprobably fall apart in a matter of days. Well,maybe that's a bit exaggerated; however,forms collect information, information drivesour lives, and Dreamweaver makes the cre-ation of those forms a virtual snap.
Beyond DreamweaverIt’s important to understand that althoughDreamweaver will make the overall creationof a form easy (buttons, check boxes, inputfields, etc), it does not include the backendtools that make the form functional. For thatyou will need to install a form handler onyour server. In many cases someone in the ITdepartment performs this function.Understand that until the form handler isinstalled, your visitors will not be able to sendyou any data; no matter how many times theyclick the Submit button.
While the scope of the book is not to teachyou how to write form handler code, there aremany sites that offer free form-handlerscripts. These sites typically provide scripts forcollecting simple and predictable form data;for more complex scripts the services of anengineer might be required.
Form ElementsForms can be populated with any number ofelements. For example, you could create asimple bio form that asks for information suchas name, address, phone number, sex, age,social security number, etc. Because of all thisinformation, it's a good idea to sketch out the
general look and feel of the form on a pieceof paper, and then use that as a visual guideto the creation of the form in Dreamweaver.When you create an interactive field,Dreamweaver inserts the code necessary todisplay the field in the browser.
Dynamic Form ElementsA dynamic form element is a form object thatgets its initial value by the web server wherethe web site is stored. When a visitor opens aform page in a browser, the dynamic formobjects get information directly from the webserver before the page appears on the screen.When form objects are dynamic, it makesupdating a snap. In order to use dynamicform objects, you need to have a data sourceset up and available on your web server.
Form ValidationOnce the various form elements are ironedout, you can look at the possibility of validat-ing some of the fields. For example, it mightbe difficult to create a validation for a namefield; however, you at least check to see thatthe field is not blank. In addition, you couldcheck to see if all zip code fields contain fivenumbers and not alphabetic characters.Options that require specific answers, such assex (male/female) could be placed as a pop-up with the correct choices, and other optionscould be designed using check boxes or radiobuttons. In most cases, using check boxesallows the user to choose more than oneoption (check all that apply), and radio buttontypically allow for a single choice from agroup (choose only one). When you chooseform validation, Dreamweaver creates a scriptthat instructs the browser how to handle theinput.

Just because Dreamweaver makes the initial creation of the form easyfor you, it doesn't mean that you shouldn't think about its construction.One of the rules in creating forms is that you're designing the form forthe person who is filling it out… not for you. The form should be as sim-plistic as possible with easy to understand instructions. When theymake a mistake (not filling in a field), there should be a way to tell thatperson a mistake was made, and what to do to correct it. Studies showthat the more difficult the form, the less likely that people are going tospend the time to fill it out. There are two stages in the creation of aform: The initial insertion of the form, and then populating the form withtext and form objects.
Creating a Form
Create a Form
Create a new HTML document, oropen an existing one.
Click to place the insertion pointwhere you want to insert a form.
Insert the form using one of thefollowing options:
◆ Click the Forms tab on theInsert panel, and then click theForm button.
◆ Click the Insert menu, point toForm, and then click Form.
An empty form appears with adotted red outline.
TROUBLE? If you don't see theoutline, click the View menu, pointto Visual Aids, and then clickInvisible Elements.
Open the Properties panel.
Click the red form outline to selectthe form.
Type a name to identify the formfor reference purposes with ascripting language.

Enter the path to the page or scriptthat processes the form data, orclick the Browse For File button toselect a file (if you don't have thisinformation, you can add it later).
Click the Method list arrow, andthen select one of the followingoptions:
◆ Default. Uses the browser'sdefault setting to send the formdata to the server. Typically thedefault is the GET method.
◆ GET. Appends the value to theURL requesting the page.
◆ POST. Embeds the form data inthe HTTP request.
Insert the form objects you wantand specify the information in theInput Tag Accessibility Attributesdialog box. When you create formobjects, follow these guidelines:
◆ Unique Names. Use a uniquename that identifies the objectfor scripting purposes. Avoidusing spaces or specialcharacters.
◆ Layout. Use line and paragraphbreaks, formatted text, andtables to design the formlayout.

After you create a form, you can starting inserting form objects. Formobjects are the individual elements—such as text field, text area, but-ton, check box, radio button, or menu—that make up the form and visi-tors fill out. The form objects allow you to create a form that makes iteasy for visitors to use, yet still provide you with the important informa-tion you need. Each form object is designed to gather a specific type ofinformation. For example, if you have a list of categories and you canselect more than one category, you should use the check box formobject.

Instead of setting static form options inDreamweaver, you can set form optionsdynamically (on the fly) from your web server,known as a dynamic form object. For exam-ple, you can dynamically set a form menu orlist menu with entries from a database, dis-play content in text fields when viewed in abrowser, or preset a radio button or check boxwhen viewed in a browser.
When a page with a dynamic form objectis displayed from a web server, the initialstate is determined by the server. Makingform objects dynamic makes updating andmaintaining a web site much easier. Insteadof manually changing a menu item, you cansimply change an entry in a database tablewhere the information is stored.
In order to use dynamic form objects, youneed to have a data source set up, such as aMySQL database, and available on your webserver. The set up and connection of a data
source is outside the scope of this book, soyou should see your ISP or web administratorfor more details.
Make Form Objects Dynamic
Select the form object you want to makedynamic within a form document.
Open the Properties panel.
Click the Dynamic button or click theLighting Bolt icon.
Select the options you want to make theform object dynamic; the options varydepending on the form object.
◆ Select an existing data source, or clickthe Plus (+) button to define a newdata source.

When you create a table, it's a simple matter to add form elements on aline-by-line basis. However, in many cases this simplistic method maynot suit your particular form layout. In that case, it's tables to the res-cue. A smart form designer can use a table within the form (just like instandard design), to control the look and positioning of all the form ele-ments. Once the table is inserted into the form, it's a simple matter touse the individual table cells to insert the various elements (for moreinformation on the creation of a table, turn to Chapter 8). The onlyrequirement for the table is that it must be placed within the red dottedlines defining the form.
Using Tables to Control Forms
Control the Form with Tables

The Validate Form action checks the contents of specified text fields toensure that the user has entered the correct type of data. You canattach this action to individual text fields using an onBlur event to vali-date the fields as the user is filling out the form, or attach it to the formwith the onClick event to evaluate several text fields at once when theuser clicks the Submit button. Attaching this action to a form preventsthe form from being submitted to the server if any of the specified textfields contains invalid data. In addition, Dreamweaver can addJavaScript code that checks the contents of specified text fields toensure that the user has entered the correct type of data.

A jump menu utilizes a form object to create a listof menu options. When the visitor clicks on the list, a drop-down menudisplays a listing of all the available page options. Displaying a listing ofall available page options within a single drop-down menu is a creativeuse of form objects that makes navigation through a complex site mucheasier for your visitors. After you create a jump menu, you can makechanges to it as needed. You can add, delete, rename or change theorder of items in the menu. In addition, you can modify the file an itemlinks to.
