Hi.

My needs are rather simple. I need to have a few forms spanning over various pages/nodes and when the user reaches the last page and hits the final submit button, I get and email with a txt or xml fiel with all the answers input by the user. Another alternative is have the answers stored in a database.

I would like to know if I would be better off trying to do this using normal static html pages and coding some php or is do-able in drupal and how hard is it to acomplish.

I have managed to set drupal up but I have very limited programming skils. (working on improving those... ;) )
Any feedback an or help would be most welcome.

Thanks,
P.

What you're looking for is the Webform module. this will do most of what you're looking for, if not all. Can't remember about the paging.

But that could be something you contribute once you work on those coding skills ;)

Has anyone found a method to post forms, from the webforms module, to an XML file versus e-mail?

I'm looking for something like this too. I have an online application that needs to output an XML file to be used by 3rd party accounting software.
