Forms have created some of the biggest headaches I’ve had as a designer, so working with a Dreamweaver extension that meshes useful form creation and modification with a simple and intuitive UI is a real pleasure. HotDreamweaver’s Rich Form drew me in with its ability to create forms that are visible even for users without Java, as the ability to reach all visitors with a single solution is the only way to work as far as I’m concerned. If you hate forms or are used to being stuck creating painfully simple ones for your pages, this is a great extension for easing into more powerful forms without a major time investment.
The extension’s features introduce rich text to form creation, allowing for visually harmonious pieces that can mesh with a given page’s design while staying within the functional requirements of the form itself. The addition of auto-complete for fields is a nice touch, releasing users from the need to search through extensive lists of options that can clutter up a page. While designers talented with writing forms may not be especially impressed by this extension, it has saved me plenty of time in debugging and rearranging my forms, and the assurance that visitors without Java will still be able to see a given form is a great benefit that has paid off in full against the already affordable cost of Rich Form.
