I blogged about pForm last week saying how great it was for creating some very stylish forms on an easy to use, free, online service. It would seem that there is a commercial version available that takes pForm to the next level, called MachForm (same company).

From the dev:

MachForm is an intuitive, browser based, self-hosted HTML form builder program. Designed as a modern HTML form builder, it makes use of the latest web technologies like AJAX, CSS, and Javascript to provide a fluid browser based experience


What does MachForm do:

  • Drag and drop interface
  • Numerous field type selections
  • Ultimate Spam Protection
  • Easy form manager
  • Email integration
  • MySQL database integration
  • Form validation
  • Export data to Excel or CSV
  • Password protected form
  • Limit one entry per IP address

Some things that could be better:

  • The tooltip could be a floating tooltip. The current one could widen your page if you pull the form into your design – happened to me.
  • Give the ability to create your own groups of fields (like the address block). What I was looking for was to create a block for Phone numbers (phone, mobile, fax) under a single block. If/When this gets added it will make this tool extremely customizable.

Basically, I will be using MachForm to create all forms in the future. I may provide the plumbing but having the interface done is a huge savings for me.

Good Job!
