Re: Asp.net V Html
Thanks again amxfan and davebarns for your time on this.
I have received the .pdf version of my booking form, thanks for that amxfan. I will add the pdf version as an option to download for prospective clients. However I have the same concerns as yourself with using downloadable documents like word, pdf, exel, etc. With downloadable forms there may be software compatibility or even software existence problems on prospective clients pc's. For these reasons I want to move to online request and booking forms. However I am hesitant to do this. Firstly due to spam issues with online forms being abused by spammers, and secondly due to a basic lack of knowledge of how to set the forms up and protect them from abuse.
Davebarns, I have had a very quick browse of your tutorial, and it looks excellent and very easy to use. My webhost does support php, so this looks like a very good step forward towards setting up online forms.
However there doesn't seem to be anything in your tutorial about spam protection. Most online forms now seem to use a unique code generated within an image to be keyed in by the user to authorise the form. How do you create these images and codes? Also I have read that this can be an irritant to users, and best avoided. Any thoughts?
I will download Photoshop Elements, it sounds great value for money.
Regards
Steve
