Hello,

I need a little help from you drupalgurus out there. I did some research but I´m still confused. I need a solution to collect data submitted by the user. Thought about using webforms.

I´ ve created a custom contenttype (image+text+int) that I want to display in grid with views.

Then I want to attach a webform for every node. The form would be the same on every node ( 2 selectfields). But the data changes on user input.I want to capture who submitted data and from which node.

Is this possible with one webform or do i have to enable webforms for this contenttype. (but then i would need to create that same webform over & over again?)

Also i don't really need that send out as email, just stored in the DB for later display ( there i thought about using WebformMYSQLViews).

If there is a better approach please let me know.

Thanks a lot for helping

Using: views 6.3
cck 6.29
webform 6.311

I'm not sure I understand your use case well enough to be sure that I'd be recommending a proper solution. Perhaps if you explain exactly what you are trying to do and where you want the "form" to appear, and what kind of data you need to collect and what you intend to do with it, we'll be able to see that one of the thousands of modules available for Drupal 6 is a better fit to your use case than the Webform module, as seems likely. I've mainly only used the Webform module to collect information in various types of "contact" form, etc. But it sounds to me like you might be trying to collect some kind of data that links a user to a node and some other "axis", which might be better done with a polling module or something, but without more details, I'd likely steer you wrong. ;-)

See you at the Drupalcon!

Basically some type of online collection. Where the user is able to store his collection (seperate content type).
I want to have a display of comicbooks ( thats my content type, title, image, Nr.) in a grid. The comics will be entered by me. Under every Comic should be a form or poll for saving user input.
The user should be able to check one checkbox for the item being in his collection ( if not it should not be displayed later anymore), one multiple checkbox for condition. That "form" stays the same on all comics. I then want to collect all data in one place to be able to display that later (table, grid etc).
Example: user A a submits he has comic 1, in mint. comic 3 in used, nr 5 in ok; user B reports comic 1 in used, 2 in mint etc.
Later both see only the comics they have in their collection.

Hope that clarifys a little bit more.

Thanks for your advice
