Dynamic form

D

Dada

I am developing an homepage and I need to create a very detailed
form. I need some dynamic features for it.
The first one should make possible to make a question to appear or
disappear, depending on what you have answered to the previous one.
Example.
4) Do you like this? YES - NO
if you select NO question number 5) should dissappear, otherwise, if
you select YES nothing should happen. The only thing I have found it's
for CHECKBOXES and not RATIO BUTTONS. And it isn't good for my
purpose.
The second thing I should create is a connection between two RATIO
BUTTONS and a TEXT FIELD
Example

8) Can you tell me something about New York?
If you select the YES Ratio Button it should activate a text field
where to write your answer; if you select the NO button the text field
should be blocked.

I wish someone of you could help me to make that things work.

The very last question: this kind of scripts would work only with
Internet Explore?

Thanks

Use some javascript DOM and set element.style.display = "none" for the bits
you want to hide. This should be pretty easy to research.

Only if *very* badly coded. Mozilla is best for this kind of work because
their DOM inspector can be used to examine pages in a lot more detail with
IE, where all you can really do is try to guess why stuffs rendered like it
is.

Thanks a lot! This site is a great help.
Er...i know I am a little off topic, but do you know what kind of
limits on mail forms I should have if I subscribe a free formmail
service?
I subscribed http://www.mailmyform.com and it isn't really clear about
the amount of form per mounth (or day) you can receive, etc.
I know this isn't really the right newsgroup, but maybe you can help
me.
Thanks

This particular service does not appear to be capped however they state
something (vague) about acceptable use in their terms and conditions
http://www.mailmyform.com/terms/
You should contact them to find out exactly how many times constitutes
overuse.
