    Default Creating message forms in Contribute

    I would like to create a form on a newsletter page that allows users to submit
    their own news.

    The original page is written in .asp, and I'm not totally comfortable in ASP
    yet, so I need a few pointers on how to set this up. Would I have to use
    Dreamweaver, and if so, is it similar to creating a form in php? (I know php
    fairly well). Any advice will be appreciated. Thank you!

    Default Re: Creating message forms in Contribute

    Contribute doesn't have the ability to create form elements.

    What I am doing is to create the forms in Dreamweaver. I am using a PHP form
    processor from MindPalette to handle the form submission:

    This works pretty well. I have been toying with the idea of writing a form
    creation plugin for Contribute, but I haven't gotten to it yet.
