Department of Technology Services Online Forms
The Utah State Department of Technology Services currently uses over 50 online forms, all of which I created.
Forms Design Highlights:
- All of the forms send results via e-mail to the appropriate agencies.
- The following settings for each individual form can be changed online and on they fly via the Forms Control Panel.
- Form name.
- Email subject line.
- Email to destination.
- Email from line.
- The page that the user is directed to if the cancel button is pressed.
- The page that the user is directed to when the form is completed.
- Any notes that are desired to be saved about the form.
- Forms validation for all forms is done with a PHP class that I wrote which includes methods to validate with Regular Expressions.
- JavaScript is used on the client side to make forms more interactive, user friendly, and to add the following functionality:
- Calendars for automatic date entry.
- Automatic field totals.
- Show / hide fields that are not needed.
- Automatic data entry in fields that contain the same data.
