Q: I wanted to tell you that I've been playing with your software for a little while and I LOVE it - it's a HUGE time saver. I just registered 1 user/domain. I've got a slight concern over the registration and the software itself. Where is the registration recorded? Is it in the software or is it recorded on your systems? When I use form1builder, does it check in with you to determine that my copy is legit? I guess my concern is, if you guys go out of business, will i still be able to create forms with the software that I purchased for this domain? And also, if you go out of business, I assume my existing forms will still work. Is this true? It just seems odd that the only files are html, php and js files - so, it makes me question where the registration info is being stored. I mean, I notice that after registering, the modification dates of the files have not changed. I'm looking forward to understanding this better.

A: Thanks for the feedback. On your questions the registration details for Form1 Builder are held in cookies on your computer. When you build a form using a registered Form1 Builder the form code also includes registration information ie domain etc. Both the Form and Form1 Builder are completely independent of us ie no linking etc so they will continue to work ad infinitum (forever). But make sure you keep a copy of your registration details in case you need to reinstall etc.

Q: I registered my software using the link on the 1st page. It went through my name, company, number, etc. and my emailed forms do not have the evaluation copy disclaimer on them anymore but I still get the 1st page that tells me how many days I have left for my evaluation. Will my forms stop working if that expires?

A: If you built the form/code using a registered Form1 Builder the form will not expire (and will have no evaluation message in the delivered form data). Form1 Builder registration is held in cookies on your computer so if you have cookies disabled/blocked each time you restart Form1 Builder before you build a new form you will need to reinput registration codes so the new form is registered. From what you have said it seems that your forms will be fine as thy are registered however your Form1 Builder registration (cookies) have been cleared so if you build any more forms make sure you register your Form1 Builder before you start.

Q: I have purchased FormBuilder and unfortunately, after building an email form within a webpage, received a message indicating that a required file was not found. I suspect that the .php file (named "mail1.php") could not be found, but I am not sure and not sure why. I tried it with and without the full url. My code is split into the form itself and the form processor script ("mail1.php"), which was uploaded "as is" from a text editor onto the site general directory and then renamed. Since you have the title, you may be able to access it directly off the website; otherwise, I can send it as an attachment if you request. I would really appreciate any suggestions you can give. I tried Matt Wright's Formmail and gave up for lack of CGI / PERL experience and had hoped that your package would be successful. Am I correct that the form action line is not pointing correctly, or is my PHP file defective? I do not really want to put the processor code in with the html, and besides, that didn't work anyway.

A: I had a look at your home page with the form and in the source I can see the php code in the form action ie it is <?php ...etc. Because I can see this in your page code it indicates that your server is not running the php code. Does your server support php? Have you tried the php test code at https://bizpep.com/phptest.html ? I also cannot access your mail1.php, again possibly your server does not support php files. If you identify that your server does not support php you maybe interested in our bizpep Hosting solution https://bizpep.com/host.php where we process the form on our servers (you can give it a free test all you have to do is open an account and point your form action to it). Let me know what you discover and I will be able to help further if required.

Q: What line of code needs to be changed to eliminate the form submission page so that when page 1 is submitted the multipage fields go from the first form to the second form without the submission page in between showing?

A: When set (true) Display as HTML before Submission displays the form input as a html web page prior to form submission. Turn this of by unchecking it in the Form1 Builder or edit the processing script so it appears as $htmldisplay = "false";. Details are in the Help file.

Q: I must say your software is very nice. One last question regarding if I were to purchase the product: I build sites on my staging server - Do i need a seperate license for each website I build that uses it? Can I transfer domains with it?

A: Thanks for the feedback. As licensing is by domain you will need at least 2 licenses if you want to run the form on your domain and also on your clients. With 2 licenses you will be able to register your Form1 Builder with each domain so that the form will run both on your domain and on the client domain. Basically a license is required for each domain the form will run on. You can register additional domains as required over time.
