Form Processor Upgrade: More Interactivity for Web Form Users and More
We'll be upgrading at the end of the week some key components of FormSmarts. The changes will affect both form users and form owners.
More Interactivity for Web Form Users
- form users can modify any invalid data they may have submitted in the same page, rather than having to press the back button
- form users can modify submitted data even when form data is not cached by the browser, or if JavaScript is disabled
- we've added features to improve the experience of visually-impaired users equipped with screenreaders
Changes in Email Notification of Form Results
- new email subject format [Form #123] My Form Name #456
- the first part [Form #123] is fixed so that you can use it to create a filter within your mail client
- emails now include a unique transaction ID, e.g. #456 that can be used, for example, as an order number for order forms (form users are shown the transaction ID on the confirmation page)
- whenever your form contains an email field, you can now reply to sender hitting the reply button in your email client
- because of the previous point, we no longer show your pass-phrase in every email

Displaying Your Own Logo on Your Forms
FormSmarts users can now
display their own logo in the top left corner of their forms.
Note that because each logo must be reviewed manually, we ask you to spend a few minutes to help us publicize FormSmarts before we take some of our time to validate your logo. Alternatively, you may get your logo validated for a small fee of US$ 5 per logo submitted. You may help us by:
- writing reviews about us on relevant sites and blogs (e.g. Scripts.com, HotScripts)
- posting a video on YouTube showing how to use FormSmarts (gets you free validation of all of your logos)
Once done,
ask us to validate your logo.

Show a Form Owner Name on Your Forms
Increase user confidence by letting us verify you own the websites you are using with FormSmarts. FormSmarts will then display a verified form owner name in the top-right corner of all your forms.
To verify your sites, sign in to FormSmarts, and choose the Verified Websites option in the Settings tab. The form owner name can currently only be a verified web hostname. We will soon also support verified personal or company names. More details here.

New FormSmarts Features to Come in 2008
Here are some of the major features we'll be adding to FormSmarts
during 2008.
Verified Form Owner
Web form users are often concerned about what the form results recipient is going to do with their personal information. As a first step in a series of efforts to help increase user confidence and trust, we'll introduce a Verified Form Owner scheme.
When the feature becomes available, you'll have the option to verify your domain name, personal name, or company name. That name will then be used as the form owner name, and will appear in a prominent place at the top of each form. Indications that the form owner has been verified will also be shown.
At the most basic level, verifying your domain name will only take a few minutes.
Customizable Form Appearance
We'll be offering the ability to change the FormSmarts logo on your forms by your own logo.
More Field Types Supported
We'll add support form more HTML form field types, like drop down menus (HTML select tag), in the first quarter of 2008.
Want More?

feature request.

FormSmarts Form Builder and Form Spam Filter Updated
A major FormSmarts upgrade was rolled out today. Changes include:

Protecting HTML Forms from Spam with JavaScript
If you are looking for a quick way to avoid automated form spam on existing forms, you may want to try this simple
JavaScript form spam protection trick. You won't get a level of form protection (and usability) comparable to what you would get with FormSmarts, but then you can implement the trick on any existing forms, irrespective of the form handler you are currently using.
We plan to offer the ability to use FormSmarts as a form spam filter for third-party forms within a few months. This will effectively allow users of other form processors to benefit from FormSmarts' form spam protection on their existing HTML forms, with very little change. Details and availability will be advertised here.
