How to set up a feedback form with "ajaxy" behavior at the bottom of pages?

By Ron Jones on 18 Oct 2006 at 15:01 UTC

I'm using Drupal & the Book Module to write up a how-to site. As is often the case I imagine it will need editing, clarification & expansion as things go along. So I want to have a form at the bottom of each page within the book module (whether it's a module, or a code 'drop in' on the page editor).

This form should have space for name, email address and a free-form suggestion box. When the user clicks the "send" button, I'd like the form to email me their suggestion, while leaving them right there on the page.

Can anyone point me at a resource that either has this functionality and will work with Drupal, or will document how to configure it?

Thanks Much,

Ron Jones

I'm also interested in creating something like this. I'd like to have it on every page so that users can send feedback concerning that page. Maybe also let users hide it. This would probably work best as a block. I'll let you know if I get anything done.

Sorry I didn't post this

Sorry I didn't post this earlier, I haven't been in here to check my posts. I found this site www.dustindiaz.com/ajax-contact-form/ with a fairly simple ajax contact form on it. I'm going to try and modify it to put in the bottom of each page of my book module, so that I can get feedback on it's usability.

There are others, as a matter of fact, it looks like this guy (Dustin Diaz) works for Yahoo and has moved on from his ajax contact form to another type that uses a Yahoo specific programming API (I watched some of his video instruction, but it was all rather above my head).

This guy www.maxkiesler.com/index.php/weblog/comments/downloadable_web_20_and_aja... has a link to several other ajax forms as well.
