Ask HN: Is there a back-end HTML form processing service?

6 pointsby JoshConleyabout 12 years ago
Is there a service that can handle all the back-end stuff of HTML forms? Like Wufoo without the front-end HTML/CSS/Javascript.<p>The reason I'm asking is because I recently made a conference sign up form using Wufoo but I couldn't customize the form as much as I'd like to. I wanted to have the form prevent users from selecting an event that has already had a certain amount of people sign up.<p>Does anyone else here feel the need for a service like this? Or would you prefer to create the back-end from scratch? I was going to but I only had a few hours to create it.

There are a bunch of other form builders out there like FormStack[1], Zoho[2], etc. I haven't used those 2 personally (only Wufoo) but I'd imagine some of them have some more advanced functionality with their more advanced plans.<p>[1] <a href="http://www.formstack.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.formstack.com/</a> [2]<a href="http://www.zoho.com/creator/online-form-builder/" rel="nofollow">http://www.zoho.com/creator/online-form-builder/</a>

I am building a service to handle the backend of any HTML page. I think it will handle your use case just fine. <a href="http://www.steveapp.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.steveapp.com/</a>

Is <a href="http://getsimpleform.com/" rel="nofollow">http://getsimpleform.com/</a> too basic? No affiliation, I came across it when making something similar
