I need help getting a template form able to be filled out and sent on website.

My dad wants me to help him make website, he rents out apartments and wants to have people be able to fill out a rental application and get it sent to him by email online. I have no idea how to do this. Im guessing that you would need to know some coding to do it which I don't know. Thanks for you help.

Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

A simple PHP form will usually take care of this. If he will be handling the paperwork manually and just wants to receive the customer information you can do this easily through Dabble DB.

http://dabbledb.com/

I have a good bit of experience with this cloud database solution and this should be simple and easy for you to set up. Just identify the fields of information you want to collect. Set up a a record layout with categories that correspond to those types of information and create a public form view.

To get more details about what you need to do just e-mail the Dabble DB support team. The respond fairly quickly and are very helpful. I am sure they can help you with this. Also the service is cheap ($8 a month) and they will host the data and provide you a public link.

You will not have to do anything overly complicated. Just take the url from the form and put it on your webpage and it will redirect to form they host for you.

Hope this helps.

You probably don't want to try to build your own form without any experience. While it would be possible to learn, you'd probably end up having a form that didn't look very professional and may not function 100%.

That being said, there are a few form sites that you can find that will do exactly what you want, and many of them are free. I can't personally endorse any of these, as I've never used them, so make sure to take a good look at them before you actually use it.

Wufoo looks pretty clean and professional
Bravenet has been around a while and has a lot of functionality, but I've never particularly cared for their interface.
FormSpring is one other one I found that looks pretty professional as well.

I hope that this helps!
