    Well, the version 3.0 is nearing completion and will be entering beta stage soon so I figured I would release the official feature list just so that the users can know what to expect.

    * No field limit (more than 100 fields allowed).
    * Multi-page forms.
    * Arbitrary field names (i.e., they can start with numeric digits, contain crazy characters, etc).
    * Form management system. This allows you to create, store, and edit your forms.
    * New form editing system.
    * New form fields: date, phone, website, country, US state. The last two fields are pre-populated.
    * Multiple selection possible with check boxes.
    * Field verification.
    * Captcha image based verification.
    * and of course all the current features of phpFormGenerator.

    The phpFormGenerator v3.0 will however require MySQL unlike the previous versions of the program. This is because the new version provides a complete form project management system which was missing earlier.

      Feature list seems great Musawir, thanks.
      I'm waiting for it impatiently!

      When can we expect the new beta?

      The beta should be out before the end of next month, hopefully much sooner though.

        Hi,

        I'm desperately waiting for the CAPTCHA feature. Is there a date for the 3.0 release and/or can you provide any code I can add to existing scripts to add CAPTCHA?

        Thanks.

          Captcha is nothing more than a graphical image that a person must view in order to key in a coded option to qualify the form submission.  You can,
          generate your own graphic codes (as many or as few as you like)
          serialize the images
          randomly or sequencially display a graphic
          based on the serial number you can then read the keyed-in code with the process.php file
          if a match is detected continue with the process.php
          if a mismatch is detected redisplay the form, display another graphic, and prompt the user to try again. 

          This is a simple process that can be added to the existing phpFormgenerator with minimal effort.

          Example simple CAPTCHA implementation.  The zipped form is located here:

      Version 3.0 will is still being worked on. I'm experiencing another wave of work load from my day job so I have to put phpFormGenerator aside for a while. You can follow TNT's suggestions meanwhile.
