As a new user of FT, I am discovering it to be an outstanding tool. As I am also a bit new to forms development, can anyone recommend a good Form Generator application or script that works well in terms of flexibility and stability, as I see FT is more a management tool and not one for creating forms.
Thanks much,
Dan

Good question!
There are a lot out there, but I'm probably the wrong person to respond to you since I hand code all my forms. Still, Dreamweaver had a pretty darn good WYSIWYG ("What You See Is What You Get") visual editor. I tinkered with Microsoft Expression Web a year or so back and was fairly impressed.
The drawback to those two is that you have to pay for them - but they may have temporary trial periods you could try out.
Anyone other suggestions, anyone...?

Ben,
Thanks for the tips on DW and MS Expression Web. I have found a couple free ones but have yet to use and test so will refrain until I have an opinion.
Regards
Dan

Hi Tito,
Yeah, that one looks neat. But I'm just not familiar enough with it to suggest integration... the problem is that it generates PHP validation code as well. This is great (very simple!) but depending on how it works and what its limitations are will determine how to integrate it with Form Tools.
Again, sorry I couldn't be more help.
