Web form essentials

There are a few important things to remember when creating any type of web form using a form builder:

1- form name
When you create a new form it is not mandatory to change the default name but it is highly recommended since it helps to distinguish between the forms in the future. In addition the form name appears in the emails sent to you and your users in the subject field.

2- form width and height
If you intend on embedding the form in your website/blog then this feature will be really important in order to make the form fit perfectly.

3- element caption
The element caption is basically the element name. The caption appears in many places (emails, data management result table, filter listboxes, etc) so if you do not provide it with a unique name you will not be able to tell it apart from the other elements.
when you drag a new element to the design area it already has a default name, however this name is general and will not help you identify the element in future use.

4- element tab index
The tab index is an attribute that each element has, which defines the order or fields. This order will be applied when the user tabs through the form, it will also be applied in the emails sent to you/users and in the data management result table.
