Hi:
PLEASE READ THE
WHOLE EMAIL
I've put the
adoption form up on the web for test purposes. The form is currently only
doing Client side validation. I am not currently stripping out html
characters, etc. So if you put junk in the form--it will be emailed to
you-if the client side validation doesn't catch it. I really want it to work for
Mickaboo, so I'd like the tech team to take the first round of testing. I
realize everyone is busy--so if you can just try out the form in one of the ways
specified below (As an adopter, fosterer, etc.) and give me feedback I would
appreciate it.
What the
form does now:
It will hide and
show the Foster and Adoption Section based on the checkboxes in the info
area.
It will validate the
required fields (client side)-marked with the asterisks.
It will email you
the form data in a simple html format based on the email you put in the email
field.
The submittal takes
a second or two--I will optimize and compress the code once we finalize the form
layout and destinations for the data.
I have tested it on
IE7, Firefox and IE8. There is a styling issue in the Adoption and Foster
Section on IE7 and IE8. I will fix it once we finalize the
design
(I will say I don't know how
happy I am with the Spry validation--I usually use another framework. I
used Spry, because it was such a long form and Spry auto inserts with
Dreamweaver. )
Also I made a last minute change and
deleted the From part of the email-will fix a bit later--you'll see what I
mean--Eventually we will put applications@mickaboo.org or
something similar
Here is the
Link:
Decisions to be
made:
1. Do we want to send the
form as a pdf attachment?
2. Do we want to send as a pdf and submit
to the db?
3. Do we want to send as pdf and submit to
db?
4. Do we want to just send as an HTML
email and have a Mickabo0 volunteer print it out to pdf? (I will format much
nicer than it is currently)
What I would like to
test?
If everyone would
try the following:
- Fill out the form
with missing data
- Fill out the form
as an adopter
- Fill out the form
as a potential foster parent
- Fill out the form
as both Foster and Adopter
Take a screenshot of
the form before you submit (Alt-print screen on the PC--Mac users you are on
your own :)
Submit the
data-check your email-verify what you sent is what you got.
Any problems :
Please send me the browser version, screen shot, and a description of the
problem
Also please comment
as to ease of use-what makes sense what doesn't.
