Q: What is the difference in the PHP version and MYSQL? I'm using the PHP and it seems to be working okay once I get use to all the features.

A: If you mean the difference between Form1 Builder and Form1 Builder MYSQL, they are both the same (both php based) except Form1 Builder MYSQL has an extra feature that allows the form data to be added to a MYSQL database.

Q: I am trying out the shareware version of form1 builder. Can one build a guest book with the registered version?

A: The evaluation version allows you to use all functions except the only issue sis that it is time limited (only runs for 7 days). If you use Form1 Builder MYSQL it will allow you to add any submitted from data to your MYSQL database and if you want to use that data as a guest book you can but you will need to have a way to extract/display the submitted data. Form1 Builder MYSQL allows you to save submitted data to your database but does not provide a display function (ie it does not extract database entries only submits them).

Q: After the form has been submitted, I get an email with the subject "Error MYSQL Form Submission." I'm sure that I correctly filled in all of the fields required to use the MYSQL feature of Form Builder, and I also made sure that the Field Names were exactly the same as the table fields in my database. I'm not sure what's going on?

A: This "Error" email is generated when the form data is unable to update your MYSQL database. Form data is delivered as as text variables. Make sure the the MYSQL fields are of the type text. Also if you have any auto incremented fields in your MYSQL database set them to be skipped using $mysqlfieldskip. You can also try setting up a test form with one basic input text field (remove the checkbox), give it a test and then build up from there. To assist further I will need access to your server to view your file and access your MYSQL database.

Q: Hello, I am building a dating site. I have a web form I am replacing and I am considering your form. I have two parts of my present form: the first page that uploads text; the second page that has a browse feature that uploads images. I am not sure how it works now, for it feeds into a content manager that someone else has programmed. I need the images to be inserted into the profile data in the same record. I need the images to be validated that they are .jpeg files and that they are of a certain resolution (maybe 400 by 400 pixels). I need an approval/append system where we can simultaneously add the daily profiles at one time 15 simultaneous additions. A holding database would be nice to for profiles we are awaiting information. Can your system do this?

A: Using Form1 Builder MYSQL you can automatically have the text (first page) added to a MYSQL database and then use the File attachment feature to send a picture file. The file will only be sent as an email attachment. You can define file types and file size (not picture resolution). Picture size can be easily adjusted we you display. Form1 Builder MYSQL will handle most of the data retrieve but to fully automate all your requirements you really need a purpose built script.
