Can someone recommend a 'form' block. I'm looking for something more complex that the contact form which allows me to create a number of fields for the user to fill (some compulsory) - results to be stored in a database and email sent both to user and named contact.

I'm a Drupal newbie. I can do all this in PHP already but I think there must be something suitable in Drupal (searching Drupal sites has not located it - perhaps I'm missing something obvious).

Thanks

Niall

Thanks for all your help.

I would like to email a copy of the confirmation message (not the submission data) to the person completing the form in a user friendly manner. Webform does not seem to allow this. Suggestions please.

Rules Module

I haven't used it for this - but the core "actions" and "trigger" modules might be able to do this.

"Rules" module is a more poweful and complex version of this - and may also be ablde to do it.

I haven't got a chance to try it out though at the moment.
