In this course, interaction designer Luke Wroblewski shows how to create web forms that encourage visitors to enter information and covers ways to capture input without the use of forms. The course covers boosting conversion rates and customer satisfaction, organizing the structure of forms, aligning and grouping form elements, assigning the correct input field types, validating input, and handling data entry errors. The last chapter highlights alternatives to static forms, such as using dynamic inline forms, using web services, and leveraging device capabilities, which can be used to gather additional information or replace a traditional form altogether.

Topics include:
Understanding why forms matter
Deciding on the form length and structure
Adding tabs to a form
Creating required fields
Adding input masks
Creating selection-dependent inputs and actions
Displaying success and error messages
Adding inline validation
Understanding gradual engagement
Enabling touch and audio input on devices
