Curious what y’all call this type of form input. I have my own name (won’t share just yet as to not taint the answers), but I rarely find that everyone uses the same name for it.

While I’m primarily targeting UI designers/developers, I’m happy to see answers from anyone.

What do y’all call it?

#UI #Design #Development #FrontEnd #WebDesign #WebForms #HTML

HTML search input with a partially-typed phrase that reads “some information oth.” There is a typing cursor after the “h.” Below the input is a menu with a list of words that match the typed phrase, each extending beyond the input phrase to reveal the words “othello,” “other,” “othering,” and “otherworldly.”

I've got some multi-step forms in vue, so proceeding to the next step is done via JS, not a real page navigation.
So I need to reset the focus to the top of the form. Following your book's chapter "Move Focus" I have given my entire form a tabindex="-1" and this seems to work.
Would you recommend some extra feedback that something that feels like navigation has just happened? Something along aria-live="polite"?

Hey, @ProPublica. I took one of your surveys, because I love you. And I'm sharing this with you, because I love you.

You have a number of these questions that should use radio buttons (single answer) but instead use checkboxes (multiple answers).

Talk with your devs. They can fix this for you.

I've finally launched into a test instance of #Civicrm within #wordpress looking at the range of functionality - particularly around #memberships #events and #webforms for #subscriptions - Im interested to what degree i might need to look at #webforms plugins and what #Opensource options are out there.

@bigTanuki regular #WebForms like for submission & contact forms?

The problem oftentimes is not the "ingress" but the #backoffice using a #CRM / #ERP and #ticketing system and #OTRS for that matter is so clunky, I did in fact setup #Jira #ServiceDesk on-prem in 2019!

This is part of the , and . And are a matter.

And yet repeatedly I send the webform back to organisations with obligations around , such as and , and they don't send a copy of what they have received back to me.

How long have webforms been misused like this?
The internet seems to have muddled minds.

Because so many web forms are built with bugs and oddities, my trust in their integrity is low. My process looks like this:

1. Enter information
2. Select/copy long-form text
3. Submit form

If there’s more than one long-form input I’ll copy/paste from both into a text document before submitting.

Anyone else have this relationship with forms? It may just be my OCD.

In 2023 why do websites with forms still have stupidly short session timeouts that mean you lose everything if you get interrupted part way through... Just give me 24 hours, storage costs are negligible. #WebForms

Anyone else feel like this? I have OCD, so it’s probably worse for folks like me. But, still. I’m curious if anyone else gives pause before using that return key.

Is it me, or does #HTMX share some similarities with what #ASP.NET #WebForms used to do with UpdatePanel etc?

Have people looked at lately?

In all honesty, the experience is nice and makes me wonder why this continues to be banned to shadow realm of .NET, known as Full Framework.

If you want a straightforward DX then this works.

Additionally, it doesn’t require a web socket or heavy Wasm payload to work (). Finally if you hate writing , this adds interactions without the need for scripts. Given JS payload sizes, what’s a little ViewState payload?
