Your support for eForms development

[datahell]

I have started developing a forms management component and plugin named eForms. With eForms you will be able to add/edit/delete forms and form fields from within Elxis administration interface, display forms in component view or within articles with the eForms plugin, receive submitted form data in your email and also save submitted form data in database (you will be able to see submitted data from Elxis administration).

Amigamerlin thanks for the reply. I prefer to wait until the publish of the final version, after your tests. I suppose that as commercial version you will include and a relative documentation in English.
