I picked up this extension for you
http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/extension/contacts-and-feedback/forms/visforms
What you have to do is. Install a free extension. Create a form for the frontend. Remember not to give access to the upload field as you are going to upload the media. There is Visforms, Chronoforms etc that can solve your purpose. You can save to database, edit your form at backend, upload and do lots of stuff.

Joomla Contact Form (from the ground up)

I'm looking to create a customized contact form in a Joomla 3 site I have created. I know how to write the php code for the form, but I'm unsure of where to place the code.
Ok, the form is located at http://www.theoscorner.com/contact-us. What you see there is only the design, and there is currently no script for the form to submit to. If I wanted to create a new php page for the form to submit to, what is the best method of doing this? For example:
Should I create a completely new php file where the template's index.php file sits, and use a module (instead of an article) to hold the form.
Should I create a new article page, and place my php script in that article?
Should I hard-code my form into a module, and place a php function at the end of the index.php page which gets called when the page is refreshed and the POST values are set.
I'm just looking for any type of guidance I can get right now. I don't want to use a third-party plugin, because I want a little more control than they allow. Thank you for your time.
Just use RS Forms or Contact Enhanced, they are both Joomla extensions available on extensions.joomla.org
There is no need to create your own MVC component.

What Typo3 newsletter extension can automatically fetch web content changes

The Typo3 extension tt_news enables for example all created news by this extension to be shown in the newsletter but not content from a "not news" page of the website.
We are looking for a plugin which automatically finds new content on the website and let us create a newsletter from it.
What extension could be used here? Might direct mail be able to do so?
Taken from the Direct Mail manual: "Newsletter pages are just normal pages. Their rendering is configured by the TS template."
A very simple solution for what you want to do would be to write a simple extension where you get the newest content elements and output them. Direct Mail itself will not do that for you, but it will send out any content that you provide on the "Newsletter page".

Prefill web form with data stored in app

With the iPhone UiWebView is it possible to prefill an html form with username and other
account details that are stored in the app's data folder. Using iOS 5.1 sdk
So I would need to read the file with the customers's information stored and then prefill the web form from the UIWebView. I need to know if this can be done and if so any tutorials how to do it would be useful.
Thanks
You could read the data from your app's bundle then run a JavaScript function that takes the data as parameters and uses it to pre-populate the form.
You can execute the Javascript in your UIWebView by using the method
stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString:
I'm not a JavaScript expert so I don't want to comment on the best way to write the JavaScript function to pre-populate the form but I know its possible.

facebook registration plugin : populating custom fields

I have an HTML form that uses the Facebook registration plugin. I have a couple of custom text fields (the kind that are included in the iFrame itself).
Whether user prefills the form using Facebook. or enters the data himself, I am able to store all values in my database without.
At the end of my post method, I redirect to load the same page. At this point, I would like to populate the fields from the data in my database. By which I mean, if the user logs off Facebook, on this page, he should still see the data that he has submitted to my database.
How do I set values for the fields (both custom and regular fields) in the registration form?
Should I say document.getElementById('field_name').value = "hello"?
Well it depends which technology you are using to generate the pages. That would be good to know. You most likely would have the JSP/ASP/PHP prepopulate those fields with from the data as it sends the HTML to the user.
