Form Features

• Form Builder:
  Generate Forms for DotNetNuke in a snap! Build your form with ease of drag & drop and style it in minutes with the integrated design/style of JQuery UI.
   
• Custom Themes & Styles For Forms:
  Use one of the included themes or roll-your-own using the jQuery UI ThemeRoller, a point and click way to create a theme that matches your site exactly.
   
• Full Set of Controls:
  See below for our set of form controls. We continually enhance our controls and add to them based on customer feedback.
   
• Customizable Data Sources:
  The Form Builder, if you use it, will get you started with the necessary data commands for your form, but you can easily modify them to fit your needs. You have complete control over the data for the form. You get a Select command that executes when the form first loads - useful for pre-populating the form with existing or default values - and a Submit command that executes when the user submits the form. These commands can be standard SQL commands or stored procedures - and they take parameters. Parameters can come from hard-coded values, POSTed values, and values from the URL.
   
• Data-Bound Controls:
  All input controls can be automatically bound to your data. Plus, you can link list controls to separate queries, making it easy to setup "lookup" records or relationships between records in different tables for dropdown lists, multi-select lists, etc.
   
• Custom Controls:
  If you can build ASP.NET controls you can build controls that plugin to XMod Pro forms.
   
• Use your own HTML and CSS:
  Tweak the form builder-built form or build your own. You have complete control to layout and style your form. Create super DNN forms with exactly the style, layout, organization and look that you need. Easily enhance and modify the form code with your own HTML tweaks, JQuery enhancements and CSS styles and rules.
   
• Add your own Javascript:
  Become a form master! Add interactivity to your form with JavaScript functions and third party libraries. XMod Pro gives you a number of helper tools to make JavaScript / jQuery / AJAX integration easy.
   
• Send Email Notifications:
  You can define one or more email templates which can be sent when the user submits the form. Emails can be sent to multiple addresses, can have a file attachment, and contain data that was submitted in the form. It is easy for you to receive email notifications when a form is completed and to send out multiple email alerts and auto-responders to users and more.
   
• Localization:
  Fully localizable. Labels and data can be localized. You can even have distinct forms and different data commands for each language and XMod Pro will dynamically load the form based on the current language. This allows you to present a different layout or different set of controls and data commands based on the user's current locale.
   
• Redirect After Submission:
  Optionally define a URL to send your users to after submitting the form. Data from the form can be sent as URL parameters or sent as POST parameters.
   
• Success Messages:
  Thank your user for their submission, provide additional links and more. Use text, HTML and data from the form to present your users with a message after they've submitted the form. You can even define a message when adding and a separate message when updating a record.
   
• Use Dynamic Values In Your Forms:
  Use dynamic 'run-time' values from the environment in your controls and in your data. Pre-fill a feedback form with the DotNetNuke user's name and email address, for instance. There's a large list of variables that you can work with such as tokens for: the current user's DotNetNuke UserID, email address and more from the DNN Users table, any custom user profile property that is created (from the DNN UserProfile table), DNN system values such as the Portal ID, page/tabID, the user's IP address, and much more.
   
• Separate Add and Edit Forms:
  Many times you may want to change the look of your form or modify how it functions based on whether the user is initially adding/creating new records or when they are editing existing data. XMod Pro enables you to define a separate form for each and will automatically load the correct one based on the current editing mode.
   
• Live Preview:
  See how your form will look by previewing it. You can even trigger validation to verify that your validation works and the messages display as expected.
   
• Online Help:
  When editing a form, help is a click away. Need to remember the syntax for a particular control? Choose it from the drop-down list and the complete help topic pops-up, complete with syntax, usage notes, attribute descriptions, and an example.
