Suggested Features for a More Professional Form
form needs to make this professionally useable 1. captcha (for non-member sites) 2. upload pic/doc in form 3. change color of form text 4. form sent to multiple email addresses 5. ability to insert hints in the form field (eg, text field). Otherwise a wonderful site builder - beautiful and easy and quick to set up.

Great idea if it had enough attention. I've always wanted to let my members or non-members allow to attach files up to a specified number of limited space per message. I certainly approve of the captcha, not entirely sure why Webs still has not implemented this yet even though it is implemented into their sign up forms.
The ability to upload multiple/single files within the same upload field would be nice. Number four I am not entirely sure of. You can setup a master email alias, for instance support@yourcompany.com, in which various members of your company are then assigned to that email address - anyone who sends to support@yourcompany.com will be sent to all the email addresses associated with that alias. You could use that alias as the email address to submit that form to.
I'm not entirely sure what you mean by point 5, however.
Some more suggestions:
- Ability to connect to a specific database on page load, which when the form is sent, will be sent to a specific table on that database, instead of the email address (to help maintain and filter in more important emails).
- The ability to assign specific fields to the fields within a specified table on the database being connected to. This will give the form the ability to know where to add and/or update data. For instance, the "Choose what your favourite sport is" field becomes the unsigned integer equivalent to the selected index of that field, in which the record is assigned to.
- The ability to upload a file to an FTP server (with the specified FTP username and password) in which a form record would then associate to if a database is specified.
A good site builder does not go without any form of database connectivity, whether it is database management with Webs or not. If Webs does allow database management, which I hope they will, I wouldn't be surprised if they charged extra for the feature. It would certainly allow Webs to compete with more professionally acclaimed web hosts. Of course, it is up to Webs to decide on what best suits them. - Ability to connect to a specific database on page load, which when the form is sent, will be sent to a specific table on that database, instead of the email address (to help maintain and filter in more important emails).
