The Perfect Form

One Dreamweaver extension can assist, two can seriously help, but several in a bunch can boost your site to reach new horizons! Such “extension packages””, or groups of extensions usually unified by the same area of application, are called Dreamweaver Boosters. If, for example, you need your web form data saved directly into an Excel file – whcih can be very handy indeed! – then you may need an extension called Form to Excel. It does what it says: whenever the customer fills in a form, which may include attachments, all data are automatically saved in an Excel sheet. But you would normally want your web form to have a validation protocol, to avoid senseless submissions; you may want to receive an email message each time a form is filled in; you most certainly will want your form to end with a captcha code (watch out for evil robots out there!); what about being user-friendly and offer a “check all” feature? or allow for fields to auto-complete themselves when customer is entering some initial digits? These are just a few features of a perfect form. Instead of adding them one by one, you can save both time and money by uploading a Dreamweaver Booster for PHP Forms.

Other Boosters exist: such as SEO Booster, for example; we will describe this one in detail when we cover extensions that concern Search Engine Optimization (SEO).
