I have created a large user form in Dreamweaver 8. I need the results to appear on my website in a particular format.

Can I create the results form in Dreamweaver 8 or do I need to purchase a different program?

Designing the results page for a large multi-field form is primarily a UX task that needs a clear handoff to whoever will implement it. , the replies from and raised implementation and hosting questions; the short checklist below focuses on producing a usable, testable results design that minimizes back-and-forth with developers.

  • Define the primary outcome(s) and the user goal for the results screen (confirm, correct, print/export). Keep the top of the page to 1–3 key facts and a single primary action.
  • Group fields into logical sections with concise headings; collapse or hide low-priority groups to reduce cognitive load.
  • Highlight changed or critical values and show previous values when appropriate so users can verify edits quickly.
  • Provide inline edit/confirm flows so users can correct mistakes without returning to the original form; include clear success and error states with next steps.
  • Offer both a formatted HTML view and a plain/text or structured export (CSV/PDF) option; mark export limits up front.
  • Prototype static HTML/mockups and a client-side preview to validate wording, spacing, and edge cases before integration.

Validate the design with keyboard-only navigation and sample edge-case data. Sanitize and encode any user-provided content (see OWASP XSS guidance at ), use semantic markup and accessible form patterns (see W3C WAI forms tutorial), and review validation/UX patterns on MDN Forms.

Of course you can do it in dreamweaver, it's a web design program.

But you may have to expand on what your form does for a better answer, and you may have to write some php to process your form's input and output (forms are actual dead, lifeless items unless their content is fed into a script of some sort).
