Links in form submissions

July 17th, 2010

Until now, if your visitor filled your form, and entered an URL in one of the fields, you had to copy it to the Clipboard, then paste it in the browser’s address bar. We just made a little trick, and now all links in the form submission are detected and made clickable.

If you hold a contest, you probably have some strict rules for participating, and one of them probably is that the contest entries must be submitted before a certain date.

Our services offer you 31 pre-made color themes for your forms. But some of our users, who have very well defined web identities, asked us to let them use exactly the colors they want. Some of them have even registered certain RGB colors.

The Likert scale is one of the best ways to create a nice, efficient, compact survey. It makes the survey easy-to-be-filled, and also reduces the height of the webpage.

About 8 months ago, we announced that the form submissions can be received in HTML format too (initially, all emails were in plain text). This feature was available to paid members only.
Now, we decided the HTML emails look too good not to be shared with everybody. So, starting this week, all users can receive [...]
