Hi Mike,
I love your contact form and comment form captcha programs. I have begun using both on my blogs recently. I'm wondering, with the contact form plugin, is it possible to write your own html form? I like the control that affords me and it keeps my stylesheet from becoming too messy. I'm able to get it to work, so this is no big deal, I was just wondering how it could be done.
Thanks for sharing all your hard work!

I am not sure I understand what you want. This is a form builder with unlimited extra fields you can add. You can have multiple forms. There are no templates to edit and no HTML to code

Hi Mike,
Sorry for my ignorance. I guess what I'm trying to say is that my html skills are pretty good, but my programming skills are terrible. I would have no idea how to program a form to do what it needs to do, but I can build one in html pretty easily. In other words, I can build the form fine, but that action part is a mystery for me yet.
The problem I'm having is minor really, it's just that I can't put my own classes where I would like and it makes my css coding more difficult, especially when dealing with older browsers like the dreaded IE. I see you have the ability to put class names for the elements but I was having trouble specifically targeting the textarea because I like to set different widths for different inputs. I figured it out, though.
Another thing I sometimes like to do is put my labels on the right side of the form rather than on top or on the left. Without writing the form, the css to do that can become complicated.
Thanks for you excellent programs.
