Here is my first public Drupal screencast on how to use the Webform module for sign ups, surverys orders and in this case lunch. Enjoy! View or Download.
Also mentioned is the CAPTCHA module and Rob Loach's excellent CAPTCHA screencast.

Invaluable for Drupal Newbies
This was exactly what I needed---even though I have Drupal 6 with newer Webform module. Drupal stinks in the documentation department, so a simple screencast like this is worth its weight in gold. Thanks, Geoff!!
great video
excellent video, just what i needed :-)

I use webform 6 in Drupal
I use webform 6 in Drupal 6x. But the contact formular cannot send the Email to more than one people. where is wrong? I have set the "E-Mail to Address" : name1@yahoo.com, name2@yahoo.com, name3@yahoo.com..... But only the first person can reciver (here name1@yahoo.com) the Email. what shall I do? somebody can help me?
Thanks for the tutorial!
I really appreciated seeing some of the things that Webforms can do. Is there somewhere that I can find out how to use the other fields that were not addressed in the screencast? For e.g. - hidden; pagebreak.
Excellent!
Many thanks for this screencast. I am new to Drupal and help like this is of immense value!
Nice Job
Hi there Geoff. Nice job on the Screencast, I can see that this module is exactly what I need.
Peace.

Need some help
Hi,
Thanks for the video. I am new to drupal. I needed some help regarding the forms.
After I have made the form, I want the data to be also submitted to another page where the viewer can see their results.
Is it possible to do that in Webform or Do I need a different Module.
Thanks a lot
Where is it?
Ahemmm... So where exactly is the screencast?
Hi question on additional processing
Hi I am new to drupal and I am trying to give user points for submitting a webform.
However, the number of points and category of points assigned will be danamic according to the input on the webform. Here is my code:
<?
global $user;
echo($form_values['textfield']);
if($user->uid)
{
if (module_exists('userpoints'))
{
if($form_values['textfield']=='1')
{
// Number of points to give to a user for viewing this page
$points = array(
'uid' => $user->uid,
'points' => 25,
'description' => 'For submiting the impact form!',
'event' => 'impact',
'tid' => 26,
'moderate' => false);
}
else
{
// Number of points to give to a user for viewing this page
$points = array(
'uid' => $user->uid,
'points' => 15,
'description' => 'For submiting the impact form!',
'event' => 'impact',
'tid' => 27,
'moderate' => false);
}
userpoints_userpointsapi($points);
}
}
?>
however it seems not working just simply cant read the $form_values, doesn anybody know the reason? Thanks a lot!!!

Uploading CSV files
Hello,
What solution do you provide to enable adminstrators of a webform to upload data to an existing webform database??
Let's say from Excel or Access? Is there a mechanism that allows a user to upload information that will populate a webform table?
Thanks
Thanks!
A good presentation, thanks!

Upload data
Hello,
Is it possible to upload data via csv file to a webform that I have created using your module? I'd really be grateful if you could confirm this.
Also, does your webform module work now Drupal vs. 6?
Hi Sir, Webform is the
Hi Sir,
Webform is the excellent modules of drupal.
I have created a number of webform; most of time it prompts the message "Unable to send e-mail. Please contact the site admin, if the problem persists." after press the submit button. The content can be send out anyway! Why?
Thanks.

Webform - Components
Ah, ok. I saw a comment on http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/webform which said "In the latest version the webform must be saved before components are added. Once saved, edit the form and components are on a separate tab."
So, I tried to create a webform (without components) and saved it. then it took me to a Components tab, just like the person indicated above.
still didn't see the component...
Hi, I still can't find the component after saving the webform. Did you ever see it? Or did I miss any thing I didn't install. Thanks.
webform - components missing
I am new to Drupal. Webform seems to be exactly what we need to build a simple form and have the data entered be emailed to our admin. I am on Drupal 5.7.
I just installed Webform 5.x-2.2 and it seemed to go smoothly. I enabled it and then went to Administer > Site configuration > Webform. All the components are enabled (checkboxes are checked). However when I go to Create Content and choose Webform, I don't see the Components (which I would use to create the fields on the form). In the screencast, the Components come after Input Format and I just don't see Components anywhere at all on the page. I thought by enabling the components in the configuration (which by the way were checked by default), the components would be listed. Instead, there is nothing on this page that refers to adding the components. Is there something I need to do to get the Components to show up?
I have tried this in both IE 6.0.2900... and Mozilla Firefox 2.0.0.16
Thanks for any help you can give.
By the way, thanks for your screencast. It was very helpful. I was excited to see Webform in action, but now I'm disappointed that I don't see Components when I tried to create a form.
Missing Form Components Tab
Drupal: 6.10
Webform: 5.x-2.6
Webform Associate: 6.x-1.0-beta2
For me, webform_associate was the culprit.
I disabled the webform_associate module and then uninstalled it. The "Form components" tab magically appeared on my webforms.
Thanks!
Thanks for sharing your tips! Now I know what Webform is and how to use it.
Fantastic! This was very
Fantastic! This was very helpful. Thank you.
Great stuff
Just the module I was looking for. I was researching creating forms on drupal and ran into this module. Wonderful screen cast. Keep up the good work.

Did you change the screencast? I can't get it to play even with the latest version of QuickTime. Audio only with blank green screen.
Thanks and Excellent!
I'm the maintainer of Webform, and even though this screencast was made ages ago, I wanted to thank you for such a wonderful reference. I posted this URL to the Webform project page.

additional text sent to my email
Hi,
Everyone is happy, me too, but I have additional question:
I need to modify the contents that is sent to the mailbox, or just add couple line with some of the variables I get from the form, e.g. I have a name and last_name variables, and I want to see them in my email in one line like this
adduser -name $name -lastname $last_name
How do I do that?
Thanks
Daniel
Sweeeeeeeeeet!
I just wanted to say that webform works great. I've used earlier versions and found it a bit cumbersome but 5.x-2.0 works like a charm. Intuitive and very easy to use. Thanks for this great module.
How to combine CCK and Webform to add additional fields
Hi,
thanks for this great tutorial.
I have a question. I would like tou create a webform whis select type of field (a combo box or check boxes) that if the user selects option 1, an other specific field appears. It is supposet to work with CCK (http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/webform) but Ican't find out how...
Help please...
Thanks
(sorry for my poor english I hope you'll understand me)
great tutorial
Thanks, I liked the screencast. I wish all tutorials were visual. Sometimes there are just too many words to read in the manuals which make the newbies like myself very confused.
It would be good to add to use of pagebreak into your screencast. I am guessing that it creates pagination so that the users will continue from one page to another.
I have a medical questionnaire to put out on the site. It has quite alot of information to display. So I am wondering what would be the best way of building the webform (easy to use and does not crash). Using colapsable fieldsets or pages. Any recommendations before i start?
I am also impressed with the built-in spell checker. I have to type my content in word, spell check and then paste it into drupal (what a nightmare)
I would certainly use fieldsets
on longer forms
Thank you
Awesome screencast, thank you. Very informative - but, really, your dog stole the show ;)
Great tutorial
Thanks - great screencast. It really helped me get up and running with webforms quickly.
Cheers.
great screencast, thanks!
We were looking for something that did exactly this function. Was this the right module? You bet - the screencast answered all of my questions, before I even knew I had some of them :)
great work.
I can't see the "Captcha" or "results" options
I loved the screencast, great job.
I have webforms 5.x-2.0 on Drupal 5x. But I don't get all those nice "Form components" I had to create each, but maybe that's normal.
I couldn't get the captcha one to work, I do have it installed but maybe not configured for this webforms. How do you do that?
Also I don't have the "results" option does anyone know how to get that?
Thanks.
Sounds like a permissions issue
that is my guess from a far. Make sure you have access to all Webform permissions and that may take care of it. It is possible there where no results to report as well
